    Day of the month not required to be visible

    The specific records are for recording work history (company, job title, start date and end date). I had originally thought that recording the three most recent job positions would be enough (going back to the beginning of 2011) but that is arbitrary. It depends how long they were in the job...

    Opening subform after entering new record

    What is the best way to open a linked subform using a button while in a newly created record? I thought a simple docmd.save command would do (either in the "current record" or the "after update" event) Thanks

    Speed performance tips for split database

    In SQL Server, the tables are not connected but are created using SQL (which has been my experience anyway). Does having established table relationships in the BE create problems for performance and speed? I am wondering whether it might be better to have separate tables in the BE of an...
