I have set up a split database and it seems to work perfectly. I have created a report on each users FE and this works fine. It inputs their own contact details on the report. This was done manually before sending the FE to the user just using ="text here" in the design of the form. What I want...

I feel like I nearly have this working how I want it to. I changed some options on the Property Sheet. I changed 'Limit to List' from 'Yes' to 'No'. To do this I had to have both columns to the same width. I also changed 'Show Only Row Source Values' from 'No' to 'Yes'. This now has the...
