datatype conversion
Q - How do I convert a datatype text field (yyyyddmm) into a different table under a date data type? Story I am receiving a large text document that has the date format as yyyyddmm. I import all the data from the text file int a table and then I run a query to only take the relavant information and put it into a table that makes sense.

Is there any way to make Access only save at the user's command?
We use a very simple Access spreadsheet for our database - no forms. We don't use any VBA (and I don't know how any of it works), so I'm basically using Access as a labelled and linked version of Excel spreadsheets. As such, everyone who works with this database isn't used to using a program that saves automatically without the user's request. For instance, I've designed a query, then re...

Publisher/Word/Access
I'm such a neophyte! I've looked through the Access Discussion groups, but can't find a situation quite like ours. We print all our letterhead from a Publisher file. When we book a tour, the name, address, date and time of scheduled tour, etc., is entered into Access. We then print a Word form letter on our letterhead. Is there any way to streamline this three-part process? I ...

The Autonumber is missing when I update the forms
My order number 38 showing on the database is autonumber. When I input some data onto two forms for this order and saved them, there was a warning saying some data will be lost. I thought I could update it again. However the form with this order number 38 was disappeared. Now after 37, there's only 39. When I looked the table of order details, the 38 records are still in there. Question:...

Pulling Back Data
Hi, This is probably really obvious, but not to me. I have been sent a text file that has two columns. I created a table using this information. One column has a company number and the second has a product number. The problem is that there can be several products for one company and each is attached to the company number. Like so: Co. Product 19 2200 19 1400 19 ...

Where to locate front end / backup question
I've been reading various posts regarding front ends and back ends. I've created various (very simple!) single-user databases in the past so this has never been an issue. However, I'm now creating one for a team of 3 people who may all need to access it at the same time. I understand the principles and necessity of splitting, but don't know if I should put front-end copies on their c:d...

Number of Registered Copies Needed?
I am setting up a database that will be eventually used on a LAN, for now it's used on a single PC that has a registered copy of Access. Do I need to buy a copy of Access for each pc in order to make it work, or do I need to register multiple users. If someone could clarify what I need to have to be set up correctly I'd appreciate it. Thanks....
