I am student, in high school, and I have to make a stock database, for ITGS, so as to receive my IB diploma.
I have created forms so as to enter stock information, and customer information, but I have no idea, as to how to connect them, so as to create an order summery and invoice. I started by creating 2 tables, one for the books, and one for the customers. I then made 2 other tables, one being an order table, and the other the linking table between the order and the books (see relation.jpg). I created a form so as to input information, but I can’t seem to get it to work, (see form.jpg)
Ideally, I would like the end-user, to select the customer's name, from a drop down list, and then for the rest of the customer information to update automatically, then, for the end-user to select a date, and finally the end-user to select books from the stock. Once the end-user has finalized the selection, they would ideally press a button, which would automatically print out an order summary/invoice (Maybe a report?)And that would also automatically reduce the quantity of the books in stock by one.
I have no idea as to how to do this and I would really need someone’s help, seeing as I have less than a week to hand this in by (The deadline is Monday 16th November 2007)
Here are the images
