Hi
I have used access 2003 to create a simple contacts db before but needs are
different now. I want to create a db that will include a
calender/appointments linked to my teaching hours and lesson plans and
resources. Is there a template that I can modify easily or should I start
from scratch and try and link access and outlook?
Many Thanks
Ani

Sadly, access does not offer the ability to easily build a calendar like that
in Outlook. That said, you can use FlexGrid to build your own. Take a look
at

http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/Otherdownload.asp?SampleName='Flex%20Grid%20D
emo.mdb'

Hope this helps,

Hi Daniel
thankyou! I just tried the link, it came up with ...
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0bb9'

Arguments are of the wrong type, are out of acceptable range, or are in
conflict with one another.

/Otherdownload.asp, line 32
Any suggestions please?
Thanks
Ani

Hi Daniel thanks, I downloaded the demo but (sorry about this) it says that
the my access db or project contains a broken or missing reference to the
file. I have not actually started to build my db yet. I am in the process
of trying to see what I can plan for it.
Thanks
Ani

Did you read and follow the instruction given in the 'Using the Flex Grid
Control in Microsoft Access.doc' document which is part of the zip file?
