    Access 2000. After doing an append query and stupidly including the autonumber id, I find that I can’t now add new records because it’s trying to use a duplicate autonumber. MS KnowledgeBase 257408 suggests updating the Jet ServicePack but I find I’m already uptodate. The db compacts...

    Windows Regional Settings v. TransferText

    Hi I have developed a front end/back end database and am now testing on user's PCs. Problem is, I'm working in Ecuador where they use the comma as a currency/decimal separator (as in $1.000,00 or 1234,75). So this is the Windows Regional Setting in most of my users' PCs. One of the database...

    Can concatenated fields be overwritten?

    My client wants a field that constructs an individual's full name from their [Surname], [Title] [FirstName] I can do that ok, but she also wants to be able to overwrite it, so that if the expression produces e.g. "Smith, Mr Robert" she can change it to "Smith, Mr Bob" Is this possible? Thanks
