Access help, please!

Recommended Posts

Please don't make fun of my computer illiteracy! I need some help coming up with a report in Access, and I will gladly put two jumps (disclaimer...not student jumps nor jumps from specialty aircraft!) and buy you some beer if I meet you in real life!

Here's my example: a dropzone has about 1,000 jumpers on file and wants to put the information in Access and into an easy to read report that's also user friendly (meaning, anyone can run the report at any time by using a skydiver's name). The report should look identical to the Excel sheet that I have attached. Each report should include only one jumper. The information is coming from three different files.

If you need more info or more examples, I am more than happy to provide. Thanks!

You need to give us some incentive; Like promising to post more pics of yourself in your dance costume when someone provides the answer.:)

And where are you going to get the data for this report?


There are a few different Excel spreadsheets it comes from. The "history of jumps" section is on one sheet. The instructor rating stuff is on another sheet.

I'll just try to come up with how the data actually looks.

I want to know what's up with the "pain in the ass scale" ?

Do Dropzones really record this info? :P:P



If they don't, they really really should! :D I think that was the most accurate part of the report.

Okay...here is what the data looks like...except it's thousands and thousands of rows....and it's not made up.

I love the people of dropzone.com! :)

If you've got all of the data in excel files I could put something nice together in a few hours this weekend.


I don't have the actual data here, but the file that I posted is (from my memory) a similar enough example....just much smaller...both column-wise and row-wise. There's more "stuff."
