I wanna make it so that people don't accidentally change data while imputing new data.


Data that will be entered is a

Hi Lacrosseboss,

Yes, you could do that in Excel, but using a database (eg Access) would make more sense.

Hey Macro,
Yeah while researching different methods, Access came up a lot. Only problem is that ive never used access. I opened it up and tried to mess around with it but was lost. Do you know of any tutorials that would help?

Thanks a lot for the quick reply.

Hi Lacrosseboss,

Sorry, but my forte is Word & Excel - I've never needed to develop anything in Access.
