From: Scott_Brasted via AccessMonster.com on 19 Nov 2009 15:42 Good afternoon, You are in the same position I ws in a long time ago. It is not a very nice place to be. You need to think completely differently than you are right now. You need a basic understanding of databses and Access. Here is a link to a site that can help get you started. But I warn you, take NO preconceived notions with you. As a previous poster said, Access is NOT Excel. links: http://allenbrowne.com/tips.html#Beginner http://allenbrowne.com/casu-01.html Use this resource. Allen Browne has forgotten more than I will ever know. But mostly, please listen to the advice you request. No here will mislead you. Good Luck to you.

Scott I'll disagree only with one point you made ... Since the folks here are volunteering their observations, and since folks have differing levels of skills and experience (and motivation), I suspect it IS possible to get misled here...
