Manny, you didn't answer my questions. folks here mostly help solve specific
issues and answer specific questions, with specific solutions. i doubt that
anyone is going to instruct you on how to build a database from the ground
up. that's like asking somebody to tell you how to build a house, as opposed
to asking how to square a window frame or wire an outlet.
you need to start by learning the basics of relational databases, and the
basics of how to use the software. here's a list of resources (blatantly
copied from a Jeff Conrad post dated 5/26/04 <bows to Jeff>):

Hi there,
I don't know if what I'm trying to do here is quite
complicated or not, but I have no idea where to start.
I trying to build a kind of schedule on a form. what I
want to accomplish is this;
Display Dates like 25-May-04 - 26-may-04 .... as headers
on a subform and then being able to record stuff on
those
columns. In other words, I want to be able to see a
schedule of each manager on a form.
Let's say,
Joe Blow
May-25-04 - May-26-04 - May-27-04 ....
Doing some stuff doing more stuff and doing more stuf
Doing more stuff
I don't know if I'm explainnig things good. Let me know
if you don't understand what I'm trying to accomplish
here.
Any inputs on this one anybody??
Thanks very much in advance.
Manny
