WHAT DO I DO?
I can add random records to a table for volume testing and then delete them ... Wow!
I don't do anything to OLE or Yes/No fields ... I do do for all other types of field.

QUANTA COSTA ...
Nuffink - only 'cos nobody ever sends any bloody money anyway - so use and enjoy. I think I did coin the term 'ResponseWare' - i.e. no money but let me know how you get on, etc. Not original but, well, ho hum ...
You must include this note if you pass me on and you may not charge for me (Other than reasonable copying fees.) Did I say reasonable? Send me the fee ...
Enough frivolity - now to the meat and potatoes ... <g>

INSTALLATION:
To install Records place the file in your Access Directory start Access and run the Add-In Manager, and choose the Add New option. Highlight Records and click on Install ...
The deed is done - restart Access and you're ready to Rock 'n Roll ... (Sorry; actually it's not that exciting!)

USING:
To use Records call it directly from the Add-Ins menu. It will only work if there is a database open and that database contains at least one table (Records will not work with Queries, MSys* or USys* tables - it will work with attached tables.)

USAGE:
1:   Add Random Records to a Table.
Select a table from the drop-down list.
Enter a number between 1 and 32767. (Was going to allow more but takes too long - even on a      Pentium!) NOTE: All existing records are always deleted from the selected table before the       new, random records are added. This is intentional and was the smoothest way to make this work - in other words check your relations before you begin! There are no DoEvents so that no time is yielded back to the system - you cannot break out of this - once it starts it must finish  (Other than the 3 fingered salute ...) This is another reason to limit the number to an integer!
Finally either click on Fill or enter some new text for the random string - note that it will only accept a maximum of 255 characters and then ckick Fill.

2:   Delete Records from a Table.
Select a table from the drop-down list.
Click Delete. Click Yes or No on the message box.
That's it - say goodbye to your records - bye bye ...
Same kicker about relations ... don't bother entering a number or changing the text - they get ignored!

If none of this makes any sense then you shouldn't use me!!!

The usual disclaimers apply, e.g. if this screws your system or tables - tough! - You have been warned! (Actually it works pretty well and has not so far caused any problems!)
