    How do you make an audit record of all actions in Access?

    Hello everyone,

    Can anyone tell me if there is any way you can log all activity on a database for auditing purposes? You can do this in other packages but I am not sure how to do it in Access? Many thanks in advance, Karen

    Hi Karen

    If you Google "Audit Trail in Access" you will find lots of references
