Not new to Access but by No means a good programmer. (1 Viewer)

[Buster Aldrich]

Hi everyone. My name is Buster and I live in Oklahoma USA. I have been using access for 15 or 20 years to keep my database for my business. I am a computer technician in a small community and I make and sell custom imaging products.
My entire business runs from my access database. I am constantly adding or revamping it as the need exists.
Please don't mistake that fact with me being a good access programmer!
I have a file folder with several codes that I refer to for what I might need to do.
Most of my thousand lines of code are taken from the internet with a copy and paste and change it to fit my database.
I am currently using Access 2003.

That is how I do it.

Welcome Buster.

if your business gets any bigger you might want to consider switching to open source server databases. after all, in this day in age they cost pennies and are much better than local programs. not to mention the fact that a hacker getting into your stuff is virtually an impossibility if you have no money to your name. =) @Buster Aldrich

Welcome to the forum. I think we all use your "secret method" of code storage, copy, adjust, paste... to some degree. I have a feeling you're going to fit in well here!
