Am I missing something incredibly easy?
I was handed a database designed by someone else and told to fix it. That
person used a master table with a field that's either checked on or off to
determine whether a person is faxed. That table is then saved as another
table each time they send out a batch o' faxes. This allows them, I guess,
to restore a previous list of faxees.
I'm fairly new at this stuff, so I was trying to keep their method and just
fix it rather trying to find a different way to save each list of faxes.
Long story short. I'm an ignorant bastard.
