Access Express Australia October 2024

This October, Crystal Long (MS Access Gurus)will be showing us under the hood of Access Database Relationships.

We’ll explore the object model and how to document relationships in Access databases using VBA.

And we’ll look at the indexes required to support relationships.

even some of the undocumented options for relationships.

Kent will show us how to document relationships in SQL Server using system views.

After that we can have a discussion about the various options like cascading update and delete.

Can I use cascading updates in a relationship based on multiple fields? Simple answer is yes. Generally I’d advise againt using multiple fields in a relationship but you may have a use case where you think it may be a good idea.

This and other burning questions will be open for discussion.

See you on Friday October 18. 11.30 a.m. AEST (GMT +10) Note: we don’t do daylight saving time here in Queensland
