Report Techniques
Hello,
With A2K, I have a split database, usual set-up with tables only in 'back-end' with a .mde 'front-end' distributed to about 15 users. My question is about reports. Is there a technique for running reports from the 'back-end' vs. 'front-end'. When a new report is requested, I really don't like distributing new FE's just for this change. (I have seen other techniqes for DOS exe to check versions of the front-end and copying the user a new .mde as necessary, but don't want to do that either for other reasons, like Office verisons, etc.) Thanks for your time.

Terry If you put anything besides tables in the BE then you negate most of the advantages of a split design. -- I don't check the Email account attached to this message. Send instead to...
