so i'm new to access but i've done a lot in the last 3 months since i looked
at it for the first time back then. so when i finished my first db for my
job, i cut it close to the end of the year trying to get it done in time for
january. now that i can take my time and add new reports to the existing db,
i'm left with a couple of general questions.
i got reasonably comfortable with dcount, dsum and dlookup so i used them
towards the end almost entirely. i'm pulling data directly from the tables,
w/o queries. is this a bad thing? i mean, is there anything wrong with just
using dcount and dsum to do all the calculations that i need? is it going to
harm my db in any way down the line?
secondly, and a little off the topic, what is the best way to integrate new
reports/forms that i create from today forward, for people who have the
existing version as it sits right now? how do i 'export' the report/form to
an email-able file so they can just insert it into their db?
thanks.
