Hi gurus,
I work for an oil company and need to fix an old DB, which used to work =
once. It will help us poor operators to do a safer job.
What it does:
When maintenance on a vessel is planned, the vessel needs to be isolated =
from the rest of the process.
For this, "Blinds" are being inserted between the vessel and the rest of =
the process.=20
For this, we have 2 things to help in the planning-stage:
1. Blind list DB
2. Blind List Drawings. (In PowerPoint form)
They are in separate folders.
I managed to fix up the Blind list DB (with my limited experience), but =
I also would like to have the Drawings appear on the same report form as =
the blind list report. This would make the DB more user friendly. If =
some friendly soul could point me into the right direction, I would =
appreciate that very much.
There are about 600 different vessels and 600 different Drawings.
The DB is made with Access 97. Sorry 'bout that. You know all those oil =
companies, how poor they are :-).
Any hints on how to marry the DB with Drawings would be greatly =
appreciated.=20

Best regards
Frank
