I'm new to access, This is my first database.
Previously I used excel to keep a list of what was happening with our Fish Tank. but with excel i wasn't able to keep an eye on stocks and losses.
So I decided it was time to have a go at Access to keep my fishtank logs, Currently I use the TBL_LOGS Notes to log a description for one of the following ie "Water Test" "Water Change" "Stock" "losses" "Maintenance".
I've been using a Log Form to keep the logs up to date, and a transaction form to look after the stock, I find myself having to type the same information twice.
Some log items ie Water Change does not use any stock, Where as New Stock, Losses and Maintenence will make changes to stock levels.
I'm at a loss on how to make changes to what i have to give me the options i'm looking for.
I have sofar "TBL_LOGS"
Key
Date
Time
Notes
Temperature
PH Range
Ammonia
Nitrite
Nitrate
TBL_Inventory
Id
Item
Description
Supplier Cost
TBL_TRANS
ID
Item
Transaction Type
Quantity
I've tried to attach a copy of database but keep getting an error
I look forward to any assistance
Kind Regards
David
