I am creating a Database which divided to two parts, first part is personal information, and second part is salary calculation plus timecard

so on first part i use "only show related record" from another table, so I can choice difference month salary record... now there is a problem,

in one field of salary record, I need to know the field result from previous monthly record, so what command should I use and how to write the script?

Create one global field Month and relation by this field (let with MMM name) to your records and near your salary field show MMM::Salary and Month. Now if you in Month field put neccessary month in MMM::Salary you can see Salary for this month.

This is one of ways, which you can go, in all case the solution is depend from building of your database.

You can, but beware I'm leaving for Devcon saturday 11:00 AM GMT ...so if it's just a tiny matter, please do ...but if you file takes a lot of digging - you'll have to wait a week or so.
