Not sure how easy this will be to answer without seeing the database but I'll ask anyway.

I have database which covers events and who attended. We sometimes get cancellations and list people has having attended, cancelled prior to the vent, just didn't show up. I'd like to see how many actually attended each event. Given the table for bookings shows the status for each attendee, can I use some sort of criteria to just select the people who attended?

Thanks

RE: Access

Hi Brian, thanks for your query. As long as your data tables are normalised and linked correctly, this should be entirely possible by simply running a query to create a new table (or using the Count function) listing all actual attendees according to what is in the status column. Bit difficult to write the query here without the database itself, but have a go and let us know how you get on.

Hope this helps

Anthony

Access tip:

Closing form after a certain time period

To make a form close automatically after a certain time period, you need to assign the close function to a macro.

Save the macro and ope up the form in design view. open the Properties sheet.

In the TimerInterval property enter the length of time you want the form open for. This should be in milliseconds, so for instance if you want the form open for 5 seconds enter 5000, for an minute enter 60000.

You now need to attach your macro (to execute the Close action) to the OnTimer event property of the form.
