Hi Steve,

Thank you for coming back to me,

It's much appreciated,

I will tell you what I am doing with this database.

I have hundreds of clients for example.  Each client has a name.  I
was thinking of keeping them in a separate table...??

Each client then has multiple accounts.  Some could have one, other
could have 100's.

Within each account I want to track the dates of my letters sent to
them......

I would like the form to be in a tablular view to make it easy to see
for me and my staff.

I would prefer to have one form and then right at the top of the form
have a filter which allows me to filter down to my clients and show me
only that clients orders.

If I could also have an "All" filter to show me everything that would
be great.  I am so silly with these databases but I have seen them
help alot in the past.

I then want to add additional functionality to it for example sending
out emails when my clients havent responsed to me.......I think the
first thing is to get my database structure correct.

Can you help me???  Please.....

Perhaps you could send me an example file to my email......

I would be every so grateful.  I do everything manually at the moment
for my small business and I am starting to lose track of everything.

Thank you Steve,

Andrea
