I can select multiple fields and make a primary key indexed with no
duplicates. But I just realized my criteria for "no dupes" holds only
if another field is empty (no value).
For example, if my primary key is:
Shirts-Mens-Style102-Large-Green-05Jan08
then I can't enter another order for the same product on the same
day.
That's good - unless the order's been shipped and another one is
needed. So no duplicates, but only as long as the ShipDate field for
that record is empty.
Can this be done easily? Or should I look into a different way to
prevent duplicates?
