Hi

I haven't really got alot more to go on. I am doing a pre test to test my
own knowledge (I am a tutor just updating my skills with 2007) and the
questions just says 'Create a divided formula for the students table then
save it with the name FD_Students'

Interpolation using Newton's Divided Formula perhaps?

Kay:

I doubt very much its anything to do with interpolation, which is the
calculation of a value between others in a series of known values; its not a
mathematics test after all. I suspect the term 'divided formula' is being
used in a different context here and not in a way one would normally expect
it to be used. The question as it stands is pretty meaningless and unless
there is something else in the test module which would explain just what they
are looking for, I don't see how anyone is going to be able to help you.

I wonder if it's a language issue: could this be a "Split Form" instead? I
know in some posts from users of non-English versions of Access the word
"formula" or "formular" is used to refer to what English speakers call a
"form".

That make's sense. It would explain the reference to 'save it with the name
FD_Students'. Perhaps a form with a subform (of classes taken for example)
is meant.
