Hello,
I am not new to Access, but I am new to developing forms that are very large.
I am making a form that has 4 tabs. 3 of the tabs only have about 60 fields total, while the 4th tab is a very large checklist with 126 questions that the user must select Y or N, so I have 252 check-boxes. I have all the fields for the first 3 tabs in 1 table and the checklist tab fields are in a 2nd table.
In the past I would just use a query in order to use two tables in one form, but I am still limited to 255 per query.
Does anyone have an idea on how to handle such a large form?
One idea I tried to run by my client was cut the number of check-boxes in half by have the user only select Y if applicable, but they need to document that the user reviewed both options and selected the appropriate one and didn't skip it.
