Hi,
I want to create a field in a table that auto-calculates based on a calculation of many related records
More specifically,
I have a table of Contacts (name, e-mail, etc.) and a Table with a one-to-many relationship called Events that are events relating to these people. e.g., Phone call with Fred on August 6th.
I want to create a field in contacts which can be displayed in list view and will hold the date of the last event relating to the person. i.e., automatically look at all the related events, find the most recent and output the date. I want this to be updated automatically (E.g., a new event gets entered, the field changes) and work for existing contacts as the database already has a good amount of data.
Anyone have any ideas?
I'm a bit of a newbie, so the answer may be simple.
Thanks!!
