Sorry I couldn't think of a better thread title... I have around 80 front end files for different users at different facilities, each with a 2019 and 2020 database per facility location. Users at one of the facilities needed a department added to a combo box on a form where they create a new record. Usually when I go in to their front ends to make the changes I need to do it to each of their individual files. I started by updating the form each 2020 database for the users and then went in to do their 2019's.... but they were done?!?! I know I have not had much coffee today but HOW did it do that? I have done numerous updates to the forms and it has always required me to do them individually per database. Is this a normal thing? I mean it is awesome but I need to know how it worked because it saved me so much time. I can't provide much more info because the databases contain PHI so I am restricted in sharing.
Example
Each user has their own folder with up to around 10 front ends. The only things linked in the databases are the tables to the back end files, everything else is local.
