Hey Guys,

Well i have a table with 39 observations. I made a form that updates the data of thid table. So the next values would be the observation number 40. What i wanted to do i that my form only showed the field that is not filled up, in this case would be the 40. Its like the form shows the 40 observation in blank and lets me fill up. After i fill it up it should only show me the 41 and so forth. And also block all the previous form editing.

Can anyone help

Thanks a lot :)

Kind regards
 
Have you tried turning on the DataEntry property?
 
Hey RuralGuy, well the data is fine. The thing is that to fill up the last row, which is number 40 i have to go through all the previous 39. So the idea was that all the 39 before were frozen

Thanks
 
Can anyone please help me out here.

Thanks for all the help guys

Again.
It is on the Data tab of the properties sheet for the form.

Oh cool. In the Locked part right. Is there anyway i can lock all my sheets at once?

Thanks a lot for all the help Rural guy :)
 
It is *not* "in the Locked part" but set Allow Edits to No and see what happens.

Maybe if you post your zipped up db, it would be easier to offer suggestions.

By this do you mean that you can no longer *edit* any of the controls on the form? That is expected behavior for that property setting.

Does the attachment function as you suggest in this quote?

Hey Rural guy. the attachment does not work like that. It starts at the 1st of 39. SO when i want to add another valeu i vale to go one by one or press the>*. What i wanted was instead of it that the form would appear already in the 40th observation

Kind Regards
 
Is an observation a record? If so, in the Open Event of the form, run this code

Code:
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRecordsGoToNew

I probably just set the DataEntry property to Yes.

Man im so noob. Can you tell me please the step by step way to make it?

Thanks again!!!!!!!!! :D
 
In form's design view, get properties window open (by right clicking on the form), click on the data tab. Data Entry is just under the four "Allow ..." lines

HTH.
