8/18/2006 1:22:02 PM    Updating a database created by someone else
I am updating an Access database created by a former employee that we use to 
 
track employee training as part of ISO, using ACCESS 2002-2003. 
 
When a WI/PRO is updated it is entered into the database incrementing the 
 
revision level by 1 (Assy-010-01 would become Assy-010-02). 
 
Employees are trained and/or training is required on job titles.  The way 
 
the dbase is currently set up is that when the revision is entered the old 
 
one is made obsolete using a check box and the new revision becomes the 
 
current required training. 
 
The problem is that when this change is made each and every job title must 
 
be reentered as requiring training on the revised WI/PRO. 
 
Is there anyway to tell access that when the WI/PRO is revised the job 
 
titles from the earlier revision should be included in this revision? 
 
Thanks, 
 
Leslie
