I am trying to create a database that alerts users when their reports are
due. The due dates will be typed in manually, however, somebody has
something due every day...
 
1. put the data, including dates, into a table. Be sure to add a checkbox to
be used when the reports are done.
2. create a query that gives you the desired result (e.g. show me the
records where the due date is <= Now() AND they are not marked "done")
3. Pop a form at startup that shows the query results.
