There's LOTS of cool stuff in there, and it's the database I've been using to manage my own task lists for the past year or so. It's just one of the things that I'm planning on integrating in the ABCD. So hang in there. A lot more is coming. Part 6 is going to include a tool to split the database, auto-relink the tables, and even allow you to switch to a different data set (multiple sets of back-end tables, in case you run multiple companies). Full contact management is also going to be added - I can't really call it the Access Business CONTACT Database without that, right? LOL. Lots more too.

And yes... that's Rick's Tree View - NOT the TreeView Control. You know I hate external controls. I built that sucker myself using a listbox. Super cool! Plus the "breadcrumb trail" on the top of the task window that says:

Root > 599CD > Courses > Access > ABCD

is completely functional too. You can click on it to jump to that branch of the tree. I put a lot of time in to this one.

I can't wait! So excited to get back to the ABCD.

Looking forward to this....

Just built ANOTHER technology that's going to be going RIGHT into the ABCD... the ability for the database to realize that its backend tables have moved. When you start the DB, it will say "hey! Can't find the ACCDB file for this table. Where'd you put it?" Let you browse for the file, and auto-relink it. This is going to be the topic of today's TechHelp videos AND a Developer lesson. See... I've been doing LOTS of stuff for the ABCD. Just haven't put it all together into the ABCD yet. Coming soon...

The Letter Writer I built in a TH video a little while ago... that's going in too. Part of the "Contact" management part.

Cant wait!!

Most of the tutorials I have found online are not complex enough for my needs. Your videos are challenging and really helpful. I am building a database for a cemetery and your ABCD/Tech Help videos have been amazing! I know you have lots more stuff planned for the ABCDatabase. I hope you will have modules on invoicing and bank accounts/check registers somewhere down the road. Live long and prosper!

Richard I just agdded a comment on data collections.  updating help tables from responding emails.  Can you include into the ABC?

JoAnn: thank you. And yes, there will be a lot of financial stuff added as modules later.

Juan: yep. :)

it has went gone for 35 days, Dear Richard. you still not update the Part6. i'm still waiting for it, due to i need it. waiting.....

Workin' on it.

still waiting~~~~~ Dear Richard

Any chance ABCD Pt6 will be in my Christmas  Stocking??

Depends, have you been good this year? ;)

Doing my best, but as a RULE, I never give time estimates. I'd rather keep you waiting than give you a date and have you disappointed. Sorry.

Just like a fine wine, all good things take time.

Yeah, I'll be releasing that soon as a stand-alone database. I've been using it myself for the past few months and ironing out bugs. Then a few months after that I'll be integrating it into ABCD.

you have been using it for several months? can i enjoy this version like you? i can pay it in advanced

Good things come to those who wait. I will never rush releasing something until I'm happy with it.

haha, i like your style, Mr Richard
