Hey everybody,
I just got a problem dropped in my lap. I have a table that just
contains employees and employee ID numbers. On a form that creates a job
requisition, two employee IDs have to be entered to denote who will be doing
the job.
When I create my report with the relationships that I have entered for the
data, the report only spews out one name. Since I only have the one table
with the employee names and ID information.
You see my report looks something like:
ID NUMBER1 ID NUMBER2
LAST NAME LAST NAME
Where in the ID number fields the number that was entered in the form shows
up, and the last name that is related to that employee number from the data
table shows up.
So, for example it shows:
1 2
SMITH SMITH
I need somehow to get the report to kick out the two different names. I
tried creating another table with the exact same employee information in it,
with the label LAST NAME 2, and then I set up the new relationships. I set
up the report and I get an error.
This is the error that Access gives me:
Type mismatch in JOIN expression. (Error 3615)
A JOIN expression is attempting to join two tables on fields of incompatible
data types. For example, you will get this error if you attempt to join a
Memo field with a Text field.
If you can help me with this last hurdle I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks a lot!
