Awsome training. Exactly what I needed. I spent a few days trying to create a database for my “Subcontractor Feedback” and always ran into some roadblock. Although it’s not technically a survey, it is very similiar. You Rock!!!

Corey: Good catch! You’re exactly right: RespondentID would be a better name for those fields, because one Respondent can have many responses (in this case, a response to each question on the survey). It still works as it’s presented, but I agree that RespondentID better conveys the relation.

great tutorial!

simple question I hope…in your normalized table structure….is the “ResponseID” in tblRespondent supposed to be “respondentID” with a One to Many to respondentID in the tblresponse?

Im trying to find out why there would be a response field in the Respondent table. Thanks!

Creating conditional codes on a normalized GUI form like above is tricky. (e.g., ‘If user selects “Other” for Question1, enable Question1_specify; otherwise, disable Question1_specify and jump to Question 2.). On either type of form, you have to write code to add such rules, but it’s much easier to do this in a GUI based on a non-normalized structure.

How do i make this happen (the above) Can you tell me where to put the rules and what the rules are?

This is another very basic question, but I was able to successfully create an entry form for a simple survey I am conducting, but when I fill out the form and create multiple records, the data does not show up in the TblSurvey table. I am sure this is something simple, but I am an access novice! Thanks.

Great tutorial! But I am also having issues with video 6 – it seems to cut off after a few minutes. Is there any chance it is stored at an alternative address that I might try and access?

Hi,
I have been trying to create a form based on the normalized table but have not succeeded. Could you please show me how you did the one indicated in this presentation?

Thank you.

Both Video 5 & 6 do work. It may just be you.
