    Drop a Table

    Maybe I'm missing something here, but why create and delete tables for reports? Isn't that just a burdensome way of creating a recordset?

    Excel - Labels on charts overlap!

    If you don't have any page width limitations, you could always just click on the grey square at the top of the row numbers and to the left of the column letters, highlight all, then double click on the column edge.

    Changing field name and all references in Access 97

    If I want to change a field name in a table, is there some way to change all the references back to that table's field name in the rest of the database (forms, reports, queries, etc)? We are currently tracking license payment dates by one field ([Renewal Date]). However, the payment date /...

    How to add an Adobe Photoshop Image (PDF) to a Form

    Just in case anyone's still wondering, if you don't mind having a huge form, you can use the graphic select tool in Adobe Acrobat and select the entire document (one page at a time, mind you) then paste that into the design view of your form.

    Form Aesthetics - Odd Question

    Recently, I was able to finish my database. It works without any (obvious) bugs. But for some reason, the thing looks like it was slapped together by a 6 year old (or the autoformat function). Are there any websites with some suggestions on how to make a functional database look like it was...
