Hello,
I have a combo box that displays certain task for a company. Each task is
primarily specific to a certain department, however, one department may be
able to do the tasks of another. For instance a person in the office can do
drafting and may make molds. While someone in the shop can make molds but
would never do drafting.
The way i was thinking about setting this up was have a table with a field
that lists the task then in the fields next to it list my departments such as
accounting, engineering, shop, etc with a yes or no box. so for instance, say
i list Task = Mold Making, then the people who have access to that would be,
Engineering = Yes, Shop worker= yes. I already have an index table with all
the departments and employees associtaed to them. on the time card in a combo
box i have the employee name in one column and their department in the next.
I just need a way for the task combo box to look at the employee department,
refer to the task table, and see if its checked as a "yes" or not. Any ideas?
ive been to http://www.mvps.org/access/forms/frm0028.htm but im not sure how
to apply this with the use of yes/no check boxes. Thanks
