Hi -
I use access as a middle ground for all of my financial and operational reporting. Since I am so anal retentive, I always obtain data at the lowest level available from our production environment. I create macros that imports the text and then updates some created fields for analysis. I have tried creating a module that will delete a table then compact the database then transfer text into the table structure. However, I can't figure it out and am not as skilled in VBA for Access.
Therefore - 2 requests from my Access brethern:
- Can you give me a head start with a module such as that described above?
- Suggestiongs about additional training for a Finance Manager with limited need for creating production databases out of Access (e.g. don't want to be a programmer full time, but want to expand my capabilities in Access)?
Your thoughts, input and guidance are well appreciated.
