Access help

Hi guys,

I've made a user data capture form that allows users to input data into a table. Now I'd like to be able to output said captured data into a report but I'd like to be able to output the users gender selection as a black dot/radio button to appear next to a preset male/female label.

I'm not great on Access. What do you think?

Thanks.

Do you mean you want to be able to toggle the gender and it displays the output in a report?

Trying to do it on the report itself is the wrong way to go about it. You could get a form to display that.

Thanks for the reply! I think to make it easier, could I just convert the recorded results (male/female) in the table to a 'M' or an 'F' and then I could output them in Wingdings as a special character? Does that make any sense

You can either pick a boolean field (yes/no) and customise that for output choice as it doesnt matter in the table I think it records it as a 1 or 0.

Or you can create a lookup and control the only user inputs as 'M' / 'F' .
