Do you save your completed tasks in some archive file? I am creating a recurring checklist for our ambulances and using recurring tasks to set daily, weekly, monthly, etc. for the rig checks. I have a need to maintain that history for both internal auditing and legal purposes. Should I just set up an archive file, use an after update event on the completed checkbox to add these tasks to this file (Insert Into statement) or have I over-simplified the process?
Reply from Richard Rost:
You can just leave them in the main tasks table, marked COMPLETED. If you find your database file is getting too large, then go ahead and archive them, as I showed in the append/delete query lessons.
