I am a novice user of Access. I am using an employee vacation database that
has been in use, but would like to add another feature to further enchance
the reports that are retreived.

When I open the file in forms view I am clicking on Design View. In Design
View I would like to add a column that is labeled "Carryover" and a box for a
checkmark if the employee is using carryover vacation. Do I need to add the
column in the tables view also? How do I get this column added in my form so
that it prints out in my report?

I appreciate any help that can be given.

Thanks
 
First, you will want to add a Yes/No field to the table.
Then, if the form's recordsource is a query based on the table, you will
need to add the field to the query.
Then in design view of the form, add a check box control. Put the name of
the new field in the Control Source property of the control.
