Good evening everyone,
I have two kinds of donations, cash and in-kind. Not wanting to have two
lists of contributors, as some contributors make both kinds, I created one
table_contributors. However, when I tried to create a query with the date,
cash, in-kind, and contributors as the field names, I returned the correct
information on the cash side (we had more cash contributions than in-kind)
but on the side of the in-kind, I had the same contributor’s name listed
over, and over, again.
If I create two separate contributor tables, the query will work okay, but
it makes me have to manually enter the information. On one of my forms, I
have a subform_contributors, where I can up-date the list. Is there a way
that information can be stored in both a tbl_cashcontributors and
tbl_in-kindcontributors?
And, can someone tell me why, I can put my main table in a query and its
reference tables, pulling down the needed fieldnames from the main table and
the fieldnames I need from the reference tables (I did this so I would be
able to have text boxes in my report rather than combo boxes). Everything
works great. The correct information is in my report. However, when I tried
the same technique for the next report, all but one of the fieldnames from my
reference tables allow my query to return the correct information. But, when
I add the fieldname from my tbl_contributors, none of my sales income shows.
Any ideas?
Hope someone can help me out of this jam, too. And, most importantly, God
Bless all of you who take the time to help us out; thank you, k
