I watched your microsoft access video but am too lazy to get back to it, so I am commenting here instead. I just want to say Thank you. I have been on the internet for a while and every tutorial I find is long, complicated and frustrating. I have seen a couple of your videos now and honestly these tutorials are incredible, it's like somebody has read my mind for how tutorials should be, I am annoyed I am only finding you now. Thank you so much!!

[@britishcrimewriter-LeeWood]

I totally agree. Kevin's videos are always brilliant.

[@BezumniyElochnik]

Thank you very much for this tutorial! However, if I create "scroll to action" to Rectangle 1 on Home button it doesn't work on Locations and Cart. Maybe someone had the same issue? I had to change it manually to "navigate to" on Locations and Cart.

[@lucaspatterson890]

I'm having trouble with newly added images, frames, vectors, etc. popping into the original frame, instead above the previous layer. So I have to keep dragging the new layer above everything else I've already done. (hope that made sense)
