    Advice on Graphs

    Hi all, I'm currently making a pretty Excel graph but I've just thought of a new way to present the data - however, I am not sure how to go about it. Basically, I have month and quantities of items shipped on that month - but I also have the history of the previous years and wanted to also...

    Looking for a freelancer

    Nothing that complex - see the attached; no need for invoicing/purchase ledger functions - it's a way of keeping track of company contact details, and who has won work where. I understand with questions and the refining of the database that things could run into weeks; but surely for an...

    Looking for a freelancer

    Hmm - I was initially going to attempt this database myself, I'm at most intermediate (and since I've been away for so long would perhaps be a beginner these days) so thought that a Pro could put something together much quicker - particularly if they had experience of other projects which they...

    Looking for a freelancer

    Hi all, I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but thought that it would be a good place to start - I've been trying to find the time to put together a database but sadly find that my new role does not allow me the time to put aside for the development of such things - as such I'd really...

    Help with Form that draws from multiple tables

    Hi all, I've been working on a database on and off for a while now, and am at the point where I've entered some test data and want to develop forms so I can display this neatly as opposed to as in a table. For one of the forms I would like it to list Company name, and then details of the...

    Question Is there an Access viewer download?

    Hi all, I have an access database that I've been developing on my main PC; I now need to demonstrate this to someone who does not have a version of Access on their machine - I wondered if there was a 'read-only' version of Access that I could download/buy and use to demonstrate the system, and...

    Question Newbie Help - relationships between tables

    Not sure if I should start a new topic for this or not, but thought I'd ask here first so people can see the history. The suggestion is perfect; works fine - I'm just curious as to how flexible things will be for reporting, I'd like to generate reports that comment on how often a firm partners...

    Question Newbie Help - relationships between tables

    In my head, I can see how that would work now - however, when I sit down at Access it may all become a horrible confused mess. But certainly it gives me a start - thanks for this!

    Question Newbie Help - relationships between tables

    Hi all, I've fallen horrible out of practice with Access over the past few years (and only had a basic grasp of it when I knew what to do); but I think that this is a basic question about database relationships; and if it becomes too complex I'll end up digging out the old books to re-educate...

    Abandonware Campaign

    I thought that too - after the original excitement of the campaign (and the petition signatures that went up so very quickly) it seemed to die down somewhat - however, there's been a bit of activity on the original thread from the site (I ended up subscribing to the thread after they got a...

    Excel to Access - easy ways?

    Hello all, I've recently been working on an Excel Spreadsheet that has grown to rather huge proportions - and was wondering if there's any easy way to port the data from my Excel Spreadsheet into an Access database? This is all just preliminary musings as I may not be asked to do such...

    Shrinking 'Report Header', etc

    Oooh... Actually, there was this handy button in the top left of the screen that offered me the options I required, took me too long to find though... I blame the fact that it's Friday... Have a nice weekend!

    Shrinking 'Report Header', etc

    Sadly, there are no lines- I've already shrank them down, as I have done with the white area (where the actual report resides), it's just these lines... they go on, and on... Thanks for the suggestion though.

    Shrinking 'Report Header', etc

    I have a report, and, quite embarassingly, can't seem to shrink the 'Report Header', 'Report Footer', etc sections down - I've tried clicking and dragging as the help file suggests, but this isn't working at all - the cursor doesn't turn into the appropriate shape. Originally the report was...

    Multiple tick boxes totalled

    Since I've currently only got a day left at this place, and have to fit work on the database in around my other menial tasks, I think I shall just pass and allow duplicate entries on the same day. Thanks for the help though!

    Multiple tick boxes totalled

    I actually didn't - I'm just trying to make someone elses more accessible - which is why I've struggled in various places, as I've been trying to figure out what they were trying to do. It doesn't matter if it can't be done, I'm just trying to tidy things up the best I can

    Multiple tick boxes totalled

    Hello all, I'm doing a travel database of sorts, which logs requests for flights, taxis etc - the report/query I'm currently putting together logs all travel requests within a date range - the only problem is that there's often more than one travel request per day, meaning that there's more...
