    Automatic assigning

    Hello, I have a question that may be well beyond my abilities with Access, but it never hurts to ask. Here is what I am doing: I would like to have a list be automaticly and randomly distributed among a group ( ie placing the items in their respective initials). The individuals would be...

    Multiple individual switchboards...one data source

    I was unable to find an answer to this question but perhaps I was not searching with th correct phrasing: I would like each person in my group to have their own Access swithchbord...essentially thier own Access file but I still want them to feed off the same data so any chnages made to data...

    Reading ACCESS 97 in ACCESS 2000

    I currently have a few databases that were created with Access 97. We now have one person who has Access 2000 on their system. Since everyone else still uses 97, I do not want to reconfig for 2000. When the user with 2000 cannot open any of the 97 files. What can I do to allow the 2000 user...

    Changing color for a specific record

    I already know how to get text to change based on a value in a field but when I do it, it is doing it to the entire form. For example: When a certain number of days have passed, the formula I have will change the field to Green but when I click on that record it makes that field in all records...

    Returning NULL fields in a report with a query.

    I have a report that runs off a form query. The form query is working fine as well as all the componenets but when I run a report to return all record, it will not return records that have blank fields. How do I set up the query or report to make no designation between full records and records...

    Tab Activity in a form

    First I want to thank jaydlewis, Uncle Jack and Rick Sprague. Thanks to you combined assistance I was able to creat a really powerful form query. This question is probably very remedial but I cannot seem to figure out how to fix it. When I created a form, it has multiple fields but when you...

    A prompt with multiple criteria for displaying a report...

    Hi. I am a newbie. I'm not sure if this an easy question or if I have taken an unintended leap into the extreme: What I have is an Access file which consists of only one table. We want to be able to generte reports from this data but we would like to put in perhaps a dialog box that would...
