The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by AIdoHSG in Access Forms, Microsoft Access Database, Access Coding/Macros
Hello,
I need to get advice about a feature Im trying to develop with in my Database. Our database has a large selection of contacts that participate in our surveys. Weve been trying to clean up the database for some time and have done a good job in identifying duplicate records. To continue with this type of clean-up Im trying to come up with a process of merging multiple records that are the same into one record. Im trying to come up with a form where it would retrieve records that are similar I would then choose the contacts to merge into one record. I am not sure if I should create a new Id or new record and delete the old ones? Or simply take out one of the records and update the remaining record with any missing information from the other record. I dont want the record to be deleted because I might want to back track so maybe dumb that record into another table?
Has anyone done something like this before? Or has anyone seen this feature being created in MS Access? Would you be able to point me in the right direction?
Thank you,
