Access apps with user definable fields?
Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry
Anyone have experience in building Access apps with user definable
fields? (Not the kind of fields where you just let the user define the
label for a pre set number of predefined fields.) I recently saw an
app that uses an MDB database and allows the user to define totally new
fields. The app maintains a table of the data fields. When a new
field is added, it is actually added to the table in the MDB.
He uses multi-column form into which he places the fields, using
predefined formats. His app is not Access so I can't just decipher how
he does it. However, I would be more interested in a way to
dynamically add new fields to specific that they be displayed at
specific locations on the form.
Would appreciate any information you may have from experience doing
such.
