Hi,
I have a modelling database and wish at a glance to see what I need to buy.
I am filling out an excell spread visually taking data of what I own from my Access Reports on each aircraft type.
so I have rows such as Spitfire Hurricane, Lancaster, Me109 and columns such as kit, scale, Interior, Exterior, Engines,Tyres, Canopy, Bombs,Decals
At top are these aircraft at 1/48 scale. then repeated again lower down at 1/72 scale.
Into these cells I mostly type the manufacturer of the part but could do with also the quantity.
At a glance I hope to see what I still need to buy if kit needs it.
A record of a part has fields such as manufacturer, scale, Title, Quantity, and a sub form indicating ForAircraftType, able to take multiple entries, linked to the ID of the record.
Could I use a report to give me such a visual check, I have only ever placed all the 'cells' (cant remember what a table cell is called as I type !) in a row then the report populates down the page these cells with their record entries. Its not the grid I am finding useful.
