    Highlighting a duplicated entry in a continuous form

    Hi Pat, thanks. I'm the self taught developer as well as the client. Our rules are relatively relaxed. I had a play around with arnelgp previous post and example database. The example works a treat but I couldn't easily adapt it to my requirements. I don't necessary want to delete a new...

    Highlighting a duplicated entry in a continuous form

    Hi all. Hope this makes sense. I have a master table (tblJobs) and sub table (tblPlant). tblJobs contains the primary data about a job. tblPlant is linked so that plant costs can be added to the job. Data is entered using a single form for tblJobs (i.e. the job) and then a sub form linking...

    Database Size, Table Back End, Compact and Repair

    We have a master front end. I modify a 'beta' version that I replace the master with after all mods completed, C&R etc. When network users log in a script gets a copy of the master front end from the server and copies to their local profile creating their own unique front end. All users log...

    Database Size, Table Back End, Compact and Repair

    Hi all. I'm happy we have a unique front end for each user. Not a single front end that everyone uses. I haven't checked out DocMan's suggestions yet - things to do. My C&R on the back end fixed the front end issue. Funny enough (not so funny really), I came into work this morning and...

    Database Size, Table Back End, Compact and Repair

    Hi everyone. Sorry for the ramble, hope it makes sense. I'm using Access for data source back end tables as well as front end windows (objects - forms, reports etc). Back end and front end are split due to multi user front end requirements. All on on a local area network. We had a minor...

    Incremental Numbering on a Continuous Form

    Hi DBGuy. Well I've had a go! Stuck with 1 as increment numbering. The code worked fine. Made the name changes with table and control/field bespoke to my database. Added the module (not had to bother with 'public ' routines but added it OK). Some of the code was beyond anything I've...

    Incremental Numbering on a Continuous Form

    Thanks DBGuy. 'Move up and down' method bugged out. Neither what I am after but thanks anyway. I'm looking for an automated way of doing all records rather than changing one at a time.

    Incremental Numbering on a Continuous Form

    Hi all I have a 'to do' list (on a continuous form) where I want to change the order of things periodically. I am using an incremental numbering system using 10, e.g. item 1 = 10, item 2 = 20 and so on. If I need to squeeze something in I can use e.g. 22 or I can manually renumber everything...
