database - what else

Folks,

I'm looking to build a database for my local drama group to sell tickets on
line, now I'm falling at the first hurdle as I need a sort of spreadsheets
view not a table view. So row A would be tickets 1 to 22, B 1 to 22 etc. Any
ideas how I could replicate this as I would want a single recurred in A1, A2
etc.

Help appreciated.

TblSeat

RowID
SeatNumber

TBlEvent
EventID
EventDate
EventDescription

TblEventTicket
EventTicketID
EventID
SeatID
PatronFirstNane
PatronLastName

To get your "spreadsheet" view you need a crosstab query that includes
TblEventTicket, TblEvent, tblRow and TblSeat. To create a crosstab query
opento the database window, go to Queries, select New and select Crosstab
Query. Then follow the instructions. You would set a criteria for the
EventID field to display the tickets sold for a selected event. Rows would
be RowNumber, Column would be seat and Value would be a calculated field in
your query to dispay what you want in each "cell of the spreadsheet".

Well, Steve... many words have been used here to describe you, but
"brilliant" isn't often one of them, so that ought to give you a glow of
pride. Congratulations on getting such a response.

And how about this one ---

His (... i.e. Steve) technical answers in these forums are good.

To receive such an assessment from Tony should "warm the cockles of your
heart." Of course, it would be provable that it had actually been posted
had it been linked rather than copied.

I'm sure I would disagree with Tony if the implication was that your
technical answers are _always_ correct, because I've seen quite a few of
them corrected in recent times. On the other hand, providing answers rather
than just trolling for business is a step in the right direction!

Why are you trying to hold me up to a perfect standard? Even frequent
responders like Tony Toews, Allen Browne, Douglas Steele, Marshall Barton
and yes, Larry Linson occasionally error. I guess they are only human but
you want me to be more than that!

You are whining about something I didn't do. The "poor, poor pitiful me"
role doesn't become you.

No one is trying to hold you up to a perfect standard, far from it. We are
just trying to get you to meet the minimum standard for decent behaviour in
these newsgroups by having you stop your solictiation.
