Hi. I'm just learning Access from reading "help" files so I apologize in
advance for not knowing the correct terms. I was asked to create specific
forms within Access for a friend's business. I created the tables with the
info that needed to be in the forms (e.g. an intake table/form; a receipt; a
certificate of attendance). What I'm trying to accomplish is to simplify data
entry & eliminate to enter the data multiple times in to the database. The
goal is to allow the person who takes the call to complete the intake
information from received phone call for service and once the caller is
enrolled in a class, take the appropriate information from the intake form
and have Access automatically fill in the corresponding information in to the
receipt form (e.g. name, cost) and in to the certificate form (e.g. name,
class date). I'm stumped. I'm not sure what this is called to find how to do
this. I was able to create the form layout to duplicate the original hard
copy the office was using so the process is computerized. Access was the
program chosen by the business so that a query could be done as needed to
search for attendees for specific classes held. Can someone please either
tell me what the process is called to connect these pieces of information and
how to locate directions for me to continue work on this process or be
willing to explain to me what I need to do to accomplish this task? Thank you
in advance for your patience with someone who is SO new to using Access.
