in front end application and back end tables

Hey,

I want to build a database which has an in front end application and
back end tables. I am new to access, and all my knowledge is from
Access for Dummies. Could any one give me a clue where to find
information regarding this topic? should I use macro to set up in front
end application or I could get it down by the GUI. I have a big book
"Running Access for Window 95" by hands, but not sure which chapter
will solve my problem. Any comments are well comes.

Thank you very much!

Here's what I would do: Go to Tools, Database Utilities, Database
Splitter and follow the instructions. Hope this helps!

Start by opening a blank Access file and enter all your tables and all the
relationships. When this is completed, you have your backend application.
Save this file. Now open a new blank Access file and go to Tables in the
database window. Click on File - Get External Data - Link Tables in the menu
at the top of the screen. Navigate to your backend file and select it. Click
Link. Click Select All. Click OK. You have now linked to all the tables in
the backend file. You will see in the list of tables an arrow on the left of
each table name indicating it is a linked table. When this is completed, you
have your frontend file. You can save it or start creating your queries
forms and reports and then save it.

A quick note to anyone reading this message thread. This newsgroup is an
excellent resource for getting help with your Access projects. If you feel
the need, however, to seek professional help, I strongly advise that you not
consider hiring this PC Datasheet character. Steve is a bright kid but is
totally unprofessional. There are literally hundreds of competent Access
consultants available. Many post regularly in this newsgroup, others can
easily be located by googling or visiting guru.com.

Don,

I abhor what you did to Davis F and personally request you never do it
again. However, I applaud your stance here!!! It's time for some people to
start telling Arno R, John Marshall, Keith Wilby and Randy Harris and all
their supporters that they are not the champions of the newsgroups and that
they are damaging the newsgroups severely. Thank you, but please nothing
more about David F.
