You may find that having is not so pleasing a thing as wanting. This is not logical, but it is often true.

Lessons

Contents

Starting off working with Misc Data. This is all of that "extra" stuff you want to collect about people, but you don't necessarily want to put it in the EntityT. For example: shoe size, favorite baseball team, nickname, etc. In lesson 1 we'll build those tables. In lesson 2, we'll make it so specific items are required, so if you want to get shoe size from everyone, it will show up there automatically and cannot be deleted. We'll also make it so you can pick from a list of helper data items to provide that data. Lesson 3 allows you to force the user to pick from the list of items, and we'll design the Misc Type Editor form. In Lesson 4 we create an admin menu and add some simple security, make helper lists system values, and add the OpenFormRight function. Lesson 5 we add a group editor and the address block for copy/paste. Lesson 6 is lots of little housekeeping items: force email to be the first tab displayed, show current age next to DOB, HowLong function, make the first email, phone, and address entered set to primary, set the focus on new records in the entity subform, create a SwitchTabs function, and hide flashing with the Echo command. Lesson 7 builds slide-out form sections for the EntityF and EntityListF.

Database Files

I'm only posting the 32-bit versions for now. That's what I use. If you are using 64-bit Access, just create a new blank database file and import all of my objects into yours. I'll post a 64-bit version when the Core is finished. If you experience any code that doesn't work under 64-bit let me know. Click here for more information about 32 v 64 bit.

Pre-Requisites Required

In order to purchase any level of the ABCD, you MUST have purchased all previous levels. For example, you cannot buy only Level 5. You must first have Levels 1 through 4, then you can buy Level 5. Sorry, but this is a hard pre-requisite.

Videos

I am recording videos showing how the database is built, but mostly so that you can understand the construction and be better equipped to make any modifications or additions you may need on your own. This will be marketed as a finished database without the need for any enhancements, but, of course, one of the main reasons to use Access is so that you can make changes yourself. The videos will be a quick run-through of how each feature is built, as I'm building it. I will be using advanced features like SQL and VBA from the start, so you may want some SQL or VBA Developer Lessons under your belt if you're going to try to follow along. This is NOT a teaching database. Free Technical Support will NOT be offered.

Tech Support

There is NO free Technical Support provided on the ABCD if you have not taken ALL of my previous Developer lessons. There are a lot of very difficult, advanced programming concepts used in the construction of this database. I do not have the time to provide free support if you get stuck trying to make modifications. All I will do is point you to the appropriate Developer lesson(s) that cover the issue. There is a reason why (a) I say this is NOT a teaching database, and (b) there are pre-requisites. Feel free to ask questions, but I can't spend half an hour explaining concepts that are already covered in my other lessons.

Licensing

Unlike my other courses and seminars which provide you with royalty-free databases that you can modify and distribute yourself, the ABCD does NOT come with a royalty-free license. You may only customize the database for your business needs and for use within your organization. You may not resell or distribute it to others without express written permission. In addition, if you are using it in an organization with more than 10 users, you must purchase additional licenses. Contact me for additional information. I will post additional details when the Core database is completed.

Ordering

There are two purchase options available for the ABCD.

  • You can purchase a fully editable and customizable copy of the database in addition to the video tutorials that show how it was built. This is the option you should pick if you want to make changes to the database for your own business needs, and you want to learn how the database was constructed to assist you. As a reminder, these are not teaching videos. They are simply provided to show you how the database was built. Free support is not guaranteed if you have questions. I do my best to answer questions, but I can't promise anything. You must purchase any pre-requisite parts or modules required. For example, you may not purchase Core Part 4 without first having parts 1 thru 3.
  • Once the Core is finished, you can optionally purchase a use-only version of the database. This is the best option if you only plan on using the database for your personal or business needs, but do not intend on modifying the structure of the database. Free instructional videos will be provided to teach your staff how to use it.

Your Feedback

I will be releasing new Core features and modules on a regular basis. You can see the list of features that are scheduled for development on the Coming Soon page. I would very much like your feedback on what features you think should be available. If you have a specific interest for your business type, let me know.
