I have a tblEmployment information in my alumni database. Main tbl is tblBiographical and has a one to many relationship to tblEmployment. TblEmployment stores beginning and end date for each employment record for an alum.
tblEmployment fields
start date
end date (which is null for current job)
Career type
employer Name
Job title
I have been asked to ouput career type for each alum's "first job" after graduating. I do not know how to indicate this on the first job record in tblEmployment so that I can generate a query. I want to know how many alum's first jobs were in x career type. In the future, I want to know how many alum's first jobs were in what career type and what their current career type is.
I have a feeling this involves some kind of code...and that is out of my realm of knowledge. I may not even understand the replies I get -- but it will be proof to my boss that we need to hire a consultant to write a code for us (or whatever needs to be done).
Thank you.....very much.
