	Hi List
	I am currently in the middle of my Yr 12 Headstart program for 09 and I was wondering if there was anyone out there who has an advanced tutorial/s for Access. My students have some experience and I was hoping to give them a reasonably challenging task to complete over the break. Any help would be appreciated.

	I've been pondering Q12 and I've worked out where we've differed.  I've
	been thinking of the dropdown list more as a tool for selecting an
	existing ID, rather than entering a NEW record.
	
	The exam question does not explain the principal purpose of the form -
	is it for data entry or editing?  If it's for entry of new records, I
	agree that it would be pretty useless to use a dropdown list.  However
	for editing existing data, a dropdown list with matching "Find" button
	would be useful.
	
	So in that sense, I'm changing my mind.
	
	But I still don't accept that a dropdown list is suitable as the sole
	means of entering a title.
	
	Sure, provide a list stacked with common titles to save time for data
	entry, but there should be some other way of entering titles that are
	not in the list. (e.g. a simple "Other..." plus a textbox.)
	
	But, examiners being examiners, B is the best of a bad bunch of options.
