Ya know, I booted up Mickeysoft's Streets & Trips and noticed that it does provide lat's & long's. They're huge numbers, but with both of them in the system, it ought to work fine... Since I'm sorting the intersections first by their county and second by their corridor (which is...

Some interesting considerations, but with 480 intersections already databased, it's a lot of work even to go to GoogleEarth. Cool tool, though. I had no idea it was there. For the sake of simplicity in data entry, I'd rather write a database that had a self-maintaining index, rather than...

Ok, I know this is already part of another thread, but my problem is a bit more complex... The database I've been designing catalogs traffic signal equipment at every intersection in a 12-county area. There's about 480 intersections in the database. My boss pointed out the need to have the...

Unless I miss my guess, if I link tables, I have to have a network connection to reach the office tables while in the field - which isn't possible in this case. I just tried replication and it seems to do the job quite well. It is a bit more than I need, but the effort to perform the same task...

I suppose replication is to the typical Access user what Ludicrous Speed was to the Spaceballs? In any case, given a brief review, I can see why you'd not want to use it, but it appears to be my only option. I just need to implement effective damage cnotrol strategy before attempting it, I...
