Is there a way to send certain pieces of form data to fields in an Access Database? I have a form that salesmen fill out to let us know when an order needs changed. I would like to set that form up, so that the people changing the orders can just click a button and the form data will automatically move to the database - thus reducing the amount of manual entry into the database. Can this be done? If so, what do I need to do in order to accomplish this?

Hi,
You can achieve this, but first it is important to ascertain two bits of information:
There is a summary here: http://assure.ly/etkFNU.
Hope that helps,

My users would be using the free Adobe Reader. My PC Resources department is currently working to get me access to LC Reader Extensions (I believe version 9.?). I understand that my users would not be able to fully utilize the form until I got the Reader Extnesions, but what do I need to do to get this set up (so when I do get access, I can roll the form out).

Hi,
If you are going to be Reader enabling the forms using the full LC Reader Extensions ES2.5, then your uses will be able to access the data connections to your database.
I don't have any public examples set up, but would strongly recommend you have a look at the posts on Stefan Cameron's website: http://forms.stefcameron.com/. There is a good search there, where you will find useful information on databases, data connections and ODBC.
Good luck,
Niall
