Hello,

I have a problem to solve using ACCESS 2007. I have an 'appointments' table and a calendar. So far as I click on any date on the calendar it is supposed to show me the appointments for that specific date on the form (this info is gotten through the 'appointments' table which has the date for each appointment). Appointments have to be separated by a 20 minute difference (8:00am, 8:20am, 8:40am, and so on....). I have to have about 30 spaces or appointments to be filled up per day.
So overall, the customer wants to have 30 spaces (already filled up with the times) so he could fill out the rest of the appointments info in each needed space as he sets up appointments.

Do I have to create 30 records for each day? How would I do this? What happens with the paces (records) that are not filled? Wouldn't that be a record that is not used (wasted record in the table) ? Is there a more efficient way to do this?

Thank you very much everybody.
 
I would make a table with all possible times an appointment could be made and another table to actually schedule the appointments. Then to see which spots are available you could create a query to see which spots are still open for the particular day.
