Default Anyone used the Time and Billing sample database?

I'm using the Time and Billing sample database that comes with Access 2000.
However I need to change a few things and one of them is invoices. Although
there is a screen that calculates the invoice and creates a print there is
no way of saving the invoices for future reference. Also the invoice number
has to be manually input rather than it being created automatically. Has
anyone used this database and developed an invoice system within it? If so
would you be prepared to point me in the right direction.
TIA
Tony

Use it as a reference and start from scratch.
I modified and consolidated a couple of them several years ago and decided I
should have done it all on my own.

Access does save all that information so it's just a matter of a couple of
reports for redoing invoices etc. and if all you want an automatic number
change the field to an autonumber.
