Read database with no relation?

Post by Andrew_Bokelman » Thu Jul 03, 2003 5:54 pm

I want to set up a database with two fields and one record in which I will enter a start_range date and an end_range date. I want a bunch of my reports to be able to see these dates to use in calculations, filters, and labels. And my reason for wanting a one-record database is I can quickly change a bunch of reports by simply updating this one record.____I don^t know how to add a second database without setting a relation. Is there a way for me to do what I want.

Piece of cake!____Create a link variable, example b_link with the value 1 attached to it.____Select relationship and use the b_link variable as the field name, then select the file you want to link too. Now select Options and select the radio button Record Number.____That^s it!
