Access and I are having fights now. I am not liking 2007, and apparently forgot half of database creation. But it's a fun challenge, and once I have this database set up I'll be able to use the format for future 'hoods.

If you want, I could post an empty version of mine this weekend.  I'm in 2007 as well, so it should work.

It's fine, I have it most of the way fixed. I had lost the ability to create new records from form view because of an issue with relationship setup, which was caused by duplicate Career Level entries (doi! EAxis had two careers with record store clerk levels and intern levels) preventing the field from being properly indexed. One of those random issues that's caused by something three steps back.  All I have to figure out is how to make the main form automatically populate the house # field when I choose the address.

I used to keep track of it but no longer do.
If I start losing track of sims I just check their family trees.

In my one hood I have had some unintentional incest with cousins thanks to the game not recognizing them as such, losing track of sims, and TJ's casual romance.

I would certainly love that. I remember doing projects in school on access, but alas, now I have no idea how to start  :-\

I'm a bit of a control freak, so I like to document my sims' information, but I don't really track their every move - just milestones like uni, marriage, moving house, etc. I do keep a notepad in which I record the names, aspirations, zodiac signs, turn ons/offs, etc for each sim on a lot, plus notes on whether, or not, to send a sim-teen to uni (I don't lock the go-to-uni want, so only those who keep the want throughout the teen stage go to uni). On a separate page, I match couples based on what sort of dynamic I want their relationship to have (not always a pleasant one), what jobs they will have, and where various sims/families will live once they graduate from uni, save money, etc. I rotate by season, because it bugs me when one lot is in spring, but another is in winter. Other than that, I don't really keep track, and don't mind too much when 'accidents' happen (affairs, twins, etc).

Edited to remove unnecessary extra word.
