Microsoft Access Fitness Database Part 35: Add Daily Totals to Form Footer, Fix Combo Box Defaults

In this tutorial I will show you how to improve the usability of our ongoing fitness database project by fixing several everyday annoyances I have discovered while using it, including adding daily totals for calories and protein, addressing issues with default values, improving navigation between input fields, and making sure new food entries are recorded under the correct date. This is part 35.

Silver Members & up get access to an Extended Cut of this video. In the extended cut, we will add sort and filter labels, create a filter box over the food item so you can easily filter and sort your data, discuss the option to display multiple dates in the food log, and I will show you my new improved bounce procedure for handling new records in the food list without screen flashing: Bounce.
