Is there a way to track changes made in an Access 2002 database?

[Guest]

Can a log be created that shows a name was changed on a certain date at a
certain time by a certain user, etc.?

Can a log be created that shows a name was changed on a certain date at a

There's a simple example at
ACC2000: How to Create an Audit Trail of Record Changes in a Form
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q197592

Audit Trail - Log changes at the record level at:
http://allenbrowne.com/AppAudit.html
The article addresses edits, inserts, and deletes for a form and
subform.

Modules: Maintain a history of changes
http://www.mvps.org/access/modules/mdl0021.htm
The History Table routine is designed to write history records that
track the changes made to fields in one or more tables.

I tried the Northwind.mdb example first, and it worked great except the
change info wasn't saved in the table. It only shows up on the form. Did I
do something wrong?

Thank you for your help.
