    Percentage Queries

    yeah i tried that, however the queried would only pick up on that criteria. i was missing the piece of the puzzle so to speak i could get that there was so many written closed logs between the time period and use the reports to do the maths. However i couldn't for some reason get it to count...

    World times issue

    I have tried and tested it and it does half of what it is intended to. it displays the list of times but does not show anything in the text box when you select it. i checked the forum page i found on it and someone had the same problem but it was never answered on the forum.

    splitting the database

    i'm not completely sure why to be honest. i think its to do with lisencing and saving cash or something. i just get given information that is deemed as 'needing to know' Which is apparently not alot. so are you saying its not backward compatible IE you can't use 2003 front end with a 2010...
