Revned,

WOW! That's alot of details! Here you go...

1. Have you ever designed a database? No...

Jeff Conrad's resources page:

The Access Web resources page:

A free tutorial written by Crystal (MS Access MVP):

2. You didn't specify what version of Access but I believe they all have
the Northwind Orders sample databse that you review, read 1. again and then
review again.

3. After you finish with 1. and 2. post back with your Data Model and let
us all have a looksee...

As for the Cash Register, did you mean Invoicing? Everything is clear and
doable just unsure what you mean by Cash Register!

Revned,

Please note, Steve is NOT the person you want to hire should you choose to
hire someone, if for no other reason then he obviously can't follow simple
Rules of Conduct in this newsgroup. Here we UNPAID volunteers provide FREE
help and FREE support, well, except for Steve who tries his best to get
monies for his services.

Hello,

I provide fee-based help with Access applications. I can create your
database for you for a reasonable fee. If you want my help, contact me at
(e-mail address removed).

Steve

These newsgroups are provided by Microsoft for FREE peer to peer support.
There are many highly qualified individuals who gladly help for free. Stevie
is not one of them, but he is the only one who just does not get the idea of
"FREE" support. He offers questionable results at unreasonable prices. If he
was any good, the "thousands" of people he claims to have helped would be
flooding him with work, but there appears to be a continuous drought and he
needs to constantly grovel for work.

A few gems gleaned from the Word New User newsgroup over the Christmas
holidays to show Stevie's "expertise" in Word.

Word 2007 ..........
In older versions of Word you could highlght some text then go to Format -
Change Case and change the case of the hoghloghted text. Is this still
available in Word 2007? Where?
Thanks! Steve

I am designing a series of paystubs for a client. I start in landscape and
draw a table then add columns and rows to setup labels and their
corresponding value. This all works fine. After a landscape version is
completed, I next need to design a portrait version. Rather than strating
from scratch, I'd like to be able to cut and paste from the landscape
version and design the portrait version.

How do you protect the document for filling in forms?

(The original poster asked how to sort a list and stevie offered to create
the OP an Access database)

Yes, you are right but a database is the correct tool to use not a
spreadsheet.

Not at all. If it's just a simple list then a spreadsheet is perfectly
adequate...

You forgot the part of when stevie does get a contract, he turns to the
newsgroup for the experts to help him because he is over his head.

In any case a "reasonable" fee is based on the project. A reasonable fee
for a storage shed will be different from a reasonable fee for a
thirty-story office building. I'm not trying to draw any specific
comparisons here, but rather making a point about context.

Check out the links Gina suggested (many of which link to other
information), browse around the newsgroups, try something relatively simple
such as a way to keep track of customers, ask questions as they arise, and
see how it goes. When you ask questions, be as specific as possible about
what you need. For instance, do you need to manage several contacts for
each customer?
