Now you know how i feel :).
I am thinking about getting another tuturial.
is there a way I could post the code here? could i post the tables and
feilds to get a little feed back?
I would like that but what is most important is to have 3 tables that work
good together.
1- Management table with contact info and include a BuildingID field to
create a relationship
to the buildings table.
2 - the buildings table will have a relationship with the apartments table
via the BuildingID feild.
in my forms i have combo boxes to pick Management when adding a new
building.
and a combo box for picking a building when adding a new apartment.
they work great in the form except i forgot where i read to lock that info
once inputed.
and i also noticed that while the forms have the word choices from the drop
down menu
the table is holding the primary key infomation.
after i get that in a way that i know i wont end up having to delete all my
info because of bad design, i would like is to have the Area's and Zip
codes together so that when i attach an area to a building it brings the zip
codes with it ( each area has 2 or 3 zip codes ).
in the combo boxes i noticed that I almost changed.
the only way i can get the combo boxes in the fields to work show the data I
want is to open the form in design view - delete the fields and then re
enter a combo box via the tool box.
once the Database is complete i will need to be able to do searches via.
Area, Bedrooms, Rent, MoveIn Date, Pets, OutDoorSpace. just to name a few.
thank you again.
