How many Tables
These are two copies of the same table. tblEvaluations contains a field for
the employee being evaluated and a field for the employee performing the evaluation. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "LMB" wrote in message ... Hi Duane, I am looking at your evaluations database and I wondered why there are 2 employee tables in the relationships window? Thanks, Linda "Duane Hookom" DuaneAtNoSpanHookomDotNet wrote in message ... Consider downloading and reviewing the Employee Evaluation sample at http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com/O...p#Hookom,Duane. You need to normalize your tables. Setting up different tables for different categories and/or multiple fields form multiple questions might not be a good structure. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "Sydious" wrote in message ... I am building a database for employee performance reviews. The review on paper has 10 catagories with questions under each catagory that are rated with a 1- 4 rating system. My question is do I make a tables as follows? Employees Table Name Hire Date ..and so on. Catagory 1 Table Catagory1 question 1 Catagory1 question 2 ...and so on Catagory 2 Table Cat Question 1 ....and so on. (continue for all 10 catagories) or........ Do I just make 1 big table for the whole review and an employee table to match to? could use any sugestions on this. |

How many Tables
When viewing the table design, select View-Indexes and you will see the
unique index defined in the table. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "Sydious" wrote in message ... What do you mean by unique index? Is that a proporty? or a relation ship? I set my tables up like yours. I might have missed a proporty tho. "Duane Hookom" wrote: 1. You need to: - cut the command button - select the tab page - paste the command button onto the tab page - you may need to re-attach the code 2. Apparently you don't have a unique index on the fields evdEvalID and evdFactorID This index would not allow duplicate values. -- Duane Hookom MS Access MVP "Sydious" wrote in message ... Nevermind. Figured out how to work that. (Option Group) I have a simular form going on now. I kept all your naming conventions and managed to copy your "Appen Factors" button. I got it to append the factors on the form but I am having dificulty with 2 things. 1. The button is always seen. Not just on the Second Tab (Factors Tab). It is always visbile. How do I get it to "stick" on the Factors Tab. 2. When I click the button all 13 factors pop into the form. Problem is when I click it again it adds anoth 12 factors again. It will continue to do this everytimne I click. How do I get this to only append once? "Sydious" wrote: One more quick question about your form.... What did you use to get the radio buttons to be the evdRating?? I feel dumb asking this one. "Sydious" wrote: I am building a database for employee performance reviews.

How many Tables
That makes sense now.. I have an evaluations database also that has the same
thing but I don't think I added the table, it just showed up and it's named employee1. I kept deleting it but it kept coming back. I guess it's supposed to be there since employees evaluate other employees. "Duane Hookom" DuaneAtNoSpanHookomDotNet wrote in message ...
