Dear friends,
Suppose there are certain records which I don't want to use again
accidentally,
how can I mark a certain record automatically so that the next time when I
see it I should remember that I have used it before?

Color marking would be more helpful if you can help on that?
Hope you will help.
 
you can add a Yes/No field to your table, where Yes = the record has been
used. or, if you'd like to know *when* a record was used, add a Date/Time
field *instead of* the Yes/No field - where the date (with or without time)
entered is when the record was used.

depending on your version of Access, conditional formatting may be an
option - but even then, you'll need something in the record to "mark" it as
used, that's the "condition" in conditional formatting.

Thanks, actually I am using access 2002, I have worked in other office
programs, but I am new to this one.
