Autofill Options
I am developing a database to track training for employees. I would like to
be able to type in a first and/or last name and/or an employee number and auto fill what I don't enter. My managers will be using this database and in order for it to be accurate and complete I need first/last name and employee number. I can't figure out how to get an autofill option to work. TC |

Autofill Options
It isn't clear where you want this to happen...
If you are using MS Access, the appropriate place would be in a form (rather than directly in a table). In a form, there really wouldn't be a need to auto-fill values you already have stored (but then, perhaps what you mean by autofill doesn't involve re-saving redundant values). More info, please...
