"What is the MS Access Companion under Reports in CattleMax CS?"

Access Companion is included automatically in the New CS edition. It is
accessed via Reports > Launch MS Access Companion.

What the Companion does:
This feature enables the user to modify any report, including preset reports,
using Microsoft Access.  It also allows for the extraction of data from
queries as well as the creation of new queries and reports.

What the Companion does not do:
This feature is strictly for reporting or extracting data.  Data entry or
modification is restricted and only allowed through the regular CattleMax
interface.

Who should use this Companion:
Only users needing to modify reports in ways that cannot be done in
CattleMax, and who have experience with Microsoft Access should use this
feature.
 
You must be careful in editing the reports and queries.  Because what you
change modifies the structure of CattleMax and is out of our control, using
this Companion may affect the usability of CattleMax and render it
inoperable.  Therefore by clicking the “I Agree” button, you concede the
consequences of using this Companion to modify any objects such as reports
or queries and that Cattlesoft will not provide technical assistance on this
Companion or Microsoft Access, nor provide assistance due to any
modifications made to CattleMax from using this Companion. For more
information on how to edit reports in Access, please see the Access User
Guide which comes with Access or one of the many resources available such as
books and web sites on Microsoft Access.
