Today data is entered into a table in the order it needs to appear on
reports. there is no well defined sort key such as alphabetical, or age, or
address or anything. If the user is very careful and enters the items in the
correct sequence all is OK. I there is a desigh change or the user made a
mistake the data has to be reentered so the reports look OK.
One solution is to add a sort key and enter the sort value in increments of
5. To enter a dataitem between 15 and 20 the user cna enter the sort key as
17. This works but is a real pain.
Is there an ad-in, shareware, code, whaever, that will let me click and
drag a record shown in a subform to a different position. and retain that
position the next time the form is opened? The popup window that allows me
to change the form tab order in access design mode is an example of what I
need to do.
