    Tracking changes in MS Access data

    Is there a way on how to track any changes made in MS Access database? If there are a lot of users changing data in database, the owner will know what are the data changes. Also it is possible to generate the audit tracker in different database or spreadsheet?

    Really depends on your db structure.

    Typically speaking, you'd ensure that you create interface for users to work on tables etc. And disallow direct edits.

    If you have this structure, you can add code in the interfaces to track changes made. Have a read of links.
