I'm trying to muddle my way through Access 2003. I'm using a
proprietary program to dump data out of a massive database, saving the
results as XL or CSV files, and importing those as Access tables.
From there, I can create a very basic report. It's actually a report
built on one table with the other tables inserted as sub-reports.
That's done me okay, until now. Out of the thousands of results, we
want only those that meet a handful of criteria, most of which do not
fit well into a query (as I know how to create a query, that is). I
can filter and otherwise eyeball a spreadsheet down to the hundred or
so records I really want and save that as a new table.
How, then, would I constrain my report to only those records that
match the filtered table?
Also, is there a recommended book for learning the basics of Access
2003?
Thanks.
