hi
i am a pilot by profession. i want to create a database of my logbook
using ms access 2002. i am facing a problem regarding the format of
time field. when i select "Data/Time" data type for my time field then
this format gives the liberty to record times uptill a figure of 59 in
different sub-formats, whereas i want the format to be able to record
the times like 80:35 or 1:10 or 1138:00. which means that i have these
many hours on a specific aircraft. i also want to carryout sum
operation on these timings. i have found out that i can use "[hh]:mm"
format in ms excel 2002 to suite my requirements but it doesn't work in
access.
i am a very basic user of access or for that matter any database.
please consider this while replying my question. i have no background
of vb code which means that i will only be able to work the things out
which are not very advanced (point and shoot mouse user).
Thanx in advance and please be eleborate in your reply.
bye and tc
