What this demo shows

A Microsoft Access publications book in the browser: an issue, the articles on it, and the people who subscribe.

  • tblAuthor is not tblEmployees — writers are a thin people table, not Time Card staff.
  • tblSubscriber is not tblCustomers — subscribers are people (FirstName / LastName), not companies.
  • tblDeliveryFrequency is not tblFrequency — calibration already froze IntervalDays on that name.
  • Articles child tab — idle until the publication is saved. An article can also sit unassigned.
  • Table of contents — this publication's articles in SortOrder. Move up / Move down / Renumber. Unassigned drafts stay on the Articles list.
  • Tags child tab — junction trelPublicationTag. Combos store IDs.
  • Subscriptions child tab — idle until the subscriber is saved.
  • Unsaved changes — Yes / No / Cancel before leaving a dirty record.

Will this work when the data is in a database?

Yes. Publication, article, subscriber, and subscription are separate tables with FKs. Multi-column reports, logos, and article image paths from the source sample are omitted this pass.
