RE: Access

Hi Natalie,

Thank you for your question.

A conditional macro runs a set of instructions when a certain condition is met.

E.g. If you had a set of sales figures, you could say that if the sales figure > 200, then show a Message box saying "Well Done". The condition being the field > 200 and the action being creating a message box. Then you can attach the macro to the Sales Value field and tell it to run when that field has been updated or run it on the current values in that field.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon
