RE: Query

Hi Christian

I trust that you found you Access Introduction cousre helpful.

To link different tables together within a query, you will need to start a query, add the tables that you want and then create a link between them. To do this you will need to drag the primary key from one table to the foriegn key in the other table, this will then set up the link.

Hope this helps
David

 

Access tip:

Splittng a database

Split your database into two (at least).

Keep all of your code, forms, reports, etc. in one 'code' database and all of your tables in another 'data' database which is then linked to the 'code' database.

This makes modifications, updates and back-ups that much easier and allows you to work on a new version of your 'code' database without affecting existing users. It also makes it easier should you wish to convert a single user databases into a multi-user networked version.
