I am new and hoping to set up simple employee database to track evaluation
scores. I would like the employee info to auto complete once the employee is
identified, For instance using names then completeing position, date of hire,
etc. However the employee auto ID primary key people will not know or
remember. how can they look up the info they need and not have to re-enter
when they put in scores.

I do not need the forms to be in access, I would have it as more of a
database similar to excel table style. If it the way the sytem works, that's
ok, just not a must for me.

Thanks in advance,
Clinton

If you use a combo box on a form it is fairly simple. Set the autoexpand
property to yes.

Are you asking how to store the employee-related data in a second table? If
so, why?
