This class
picks up where
Expert Level 3
left off. We will begin by setting up a table to track additional
customer information that we don't want to keep in our primary customer
table. You'll learn why in class. You will learn how to force a
one-to-one relationship so that each customer can have one and only
one related record in the extended customer table. We'll also set up
some additional tables to track multiple family members per customer.
In Lesson 2 we will build the extended
customer form and learn a bunch of new form controls. We'll build an
option group, a list box, and some toggle buttons. We'll learn some
advanced formatting techniques and how to make the toggle buttons
change color when they're pressed or you hover the mouse over them.
In Lesson 3 we will continue work on our
extended customer form. You will learn about the tab controls, and you
will learn how to display images in your forms and reports
without actually saving that image in your database. You'll learn why
this is important to keep your database running efficiently.
Next we will build a form to track the
additional family members per customer. We will embed that as a
subform inside of the extended customer form. We'll also create a combo
box to pick the relationship to the customer, and a helper form so we
can edit/add those on the fly.
Finally, we'll take a walk through all of
the tools in the form design toolbox. I'll go over the ones we've
covered so far, explain which ones you'll probably never use, and give
you a brief overview of the controls we're going to cover in future
upcoming lessons.
This is the fourth class in the Access Expert series. If you want
to take your database skills to the next level, this is the class for
you. Understanding how to use a variety of different form controls
and relationships is
important to the success of your projects.
