I am trying to build a somewhat simple database for my sister. I have all of
the tables and forms set up the way she needs them but now when I am trying
to set up the queries and reports she wants I am running in to a wall. I
have a table for products which has the name and ID and a cost associated
with each. I have a table for orders which I have set up to track who sold
it, what they sold, when and who they sold it to. I have the "what they
sold" as a list box which lets the user simply check off which items were
bought. (There are only 5 products that can be sold, so that is why I used
the list box). I am trying to run a query and a report that will give a
summary by month by Sales person with a total $ amt sold. The problem is
that the multivalued box has 5 choices and each of those have a dollar amount
associated with each item (in its respective table) and when I run these
queries and reports it is only taking the cost of one of the items selected.
I am still quite new to the terminology and am somewhat clueless to coding,
is there some brave soul that might be able to point me in the right
direction??
