I've asked this question in the new users forum and got some responses but it
didn't help my situation. Hopefully I can get an answer here. Here we go...
I'm creating a database to keep track of content for a website. There is a
lot of activity so I would like to have a notes box with a time/date stamp
which will allow me to write notes. There is a possibility other people will
be using this database so I want to make it as user-friendly as possible.
Here is the structure of my tables including the fields...
-Page: PageID(Primary Key-AutoNumber), Page Name (Text), Last Modification
Date (Date/Time), Reviewing Frequency (Text), URL (Hyperlink)
-Notes: Note ID (Primary Key-AutoNumber), Page ID (Foreign Key from Page
table), Notes (Memo), NoteDate (Date/Time)
I've created a parent form using fields from the Page table. This was ok.
I don't know what to do past this.
I would like a box where people can type a note and click on a button to
insert the note in a second box. This second box would display all of the
notes with a date/time stamp in chronological order starting from the most
recent one. I would like it so that the data in the second box never changes
(read-only). People are only allowed to insert the new note at the click of a
button. I would like that the Date/Time Stamp appear in red and there be a
marker seperating the date from the text...maybe a colon or something. In
addition, I would like it so that each note is seperated by one or two
spaces. Here is an example of what I would like:
Oct-17-2006 3:00PM: This is my second note.
Oct-16-2006 4:50PM: This is my first note.
That is exactly how I want the note to appear except the date would be in
red and the text in black.
I've read about this subject and tried several of them but I always
encountered problems. I feel comfortable using Access but when it comes to
macros, events codes...I'm a complete newby.
If you are going to write instructions, please number them. I'm sort of like
Ricky on Trailer Park Boys...I follow directions better with a numbered
list...LOL!!!
Someone please, please help me. I would appreciate this so much. You can
e-mail me at (e-mail address removed) or answer here.
