OK, this is turning into thesofa's personal support request forum, and I thank all of you for the help I get.

I have a master table with 4 slave tables.

Pupil is the master table and the slave tables are as follows

Detentions

Behaviours

Efforts

Service awards
at the moment, if I want to give a service award to a group of pupils, for example to a tutor group, I can filter out the tutor group, i then need to select service award for each pupil, then add new, then pick the reason and click save. This takes me back to the pupil list, where I can select the next pupil and repeat.

It would be lovely if I could do this differently.

Filter out the group of kids,

select them all

deselect the 2 or 3 who are so bad that they cannot have a service award,

pick the reason for the service award, for example, 95% attendance in the last half term.

click add and it adds a service award for the reason selected to the list of pupils selected. The service award records are stored in a separate table.

Can I do this?

Can I do this with PHPR?

Can WE do this please?

Cheers and TIA

Hi,

Will a Microsoft word .doc file do, with screen shots?
