reservation chart in access

I assume by "professional" you mean "paid", as in someone who gets paid for
the help...g

The OP came as most come, looking for free help. I offered free help and
you
offered paid help. It's that simple. If you can't understand that, you
need
to get professional help.

That's not what the OP asked for. He/she asked for assistance and I
provided
assistance (free). The sample I suggested has a report with beginning
and
ending dates in a chart. If you haven't scared away the OP, I will
continue
offering support.

I just looked out on my web server and I do have at least 4 zipped MDB
files
that I put out there based on threads from public news groups (free).

You are just not getting it. The news groups aren't for people looking
for
others to perform work for them. They are for people who have
questions
and
want to learn how to use Access. There are other places on the web
where
you
can either post work needed or offered (not for free).

If this thread were to stay on topic with the required chart and the
OP
wasn't understanding, I would do what I usually do in those cases:
offer
to
accept a copy of their MDB with requirements and provide a working
sample
back to them (for free). This never happens until the NG system of
communication just doesn't seem to be working.

I have taken on about 2 small projects in the past 10 years based on
my
participation here. The OP always contacts me first and generally must
exhaust the (free) NG system.

I have also accepted MDBs from people and spent hours assisting
them
outside
of the NGs for free. In none of these instances did I ever ask for
money.

Steve,
Are you advertising? I'm offering free assistance which is the
basis
for
public news groups. The sample that I suggested has a gantt type
chart
that
can be adapted to meet the needs of the OP.

No where in the Op's original post does he say he is looking for free help!
He stated his problem and he said he can not figure it out. He didn't ask
for assistance; he asked for a solution. Look closely at what you boast is
help. The OP gave an example of what he needed a solution for at
www.chartallco.com. This website shows a gannt chart displaying
reservations. He said he "can not figure it out". Your great piece of advise
was go look at another website with a gannt chart. Now if an OP can't figure
out his example website how is it of any help to tell him to look at another
website with the same thing. With all of your rhetoric about assistance and
free help, the bottom line is the OP sadly got what he paid for from you -
nothing. I offered the OP help that guarantees a solution in the end. It was
his perogative to accept or reject my help.

There is no need to specify that one is looking for free help, since
that is the purpose of these groups.

Ambulance chasing is not.

Steve, you definitely need professional help (and I do not mean with
Access). Will Father Monty help?

Everyone knows that these newsgroups are for FREE peer to peer support, the
OP does not have to state the obvious. Of course, stating the obvious does
not work with you.
