A couple of questions that an expert could help me with

message from David Carter on 12 May 2004
Hi,
How do I enforce business rules in a table to
automatically link 2 attributes in a table
i.e. - if a change is made to an attribute in a table to
a value between null/not null how to I get the other
attribute to change to another predefined value in a
value list.

You can't do that from an Access table. You shouldn't be doing data entry
directly into a table but use a form instead. On a form you can do what you
are trying to do by putting the appropriate code in the AfterUupdate event
of the relevant text boxes.

You do this by using forms for data entry. You can use VBA in the form to
enforce the rules.
