Generally speaking when you link a child record to a parent record you need to create a parent record first. So in your example it works ok if you select the supplier first and then select your product names. You will notice that the ID for the main form remains "New "until you select a...

Have a look at this - it pretty good. http://www.access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=218554[/URL]

Hi, not entirely sure what you are aiming for however you could try this.... DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRecordsGoToNew on the onload event of the form, or on the form properties Data/DataEntries/Yes this restricts the form to new entries only. You could also use allowedits = no so that although...

Have a look at the frmstock. My amendments in yellow and a function button which has the code behind it. I have also added a few new fields to tblstock and tblstock2 and altered the relationship between these to reflect the join with the auto id. so that yo have a PO identifier I have made a...

In database tools, relationships...build a link between your main table and sub table. For every one record in Main Table you may have many records in sub table. Draw the link to show a one to many, right click the joint and edit relationship to show "include all from Main table and only those...

..Just looked at how you generate your PurchaseID, its not an autonumber as I thought and I realise now what you mean. I think though that the method you are using is going to give you issues as the ID is only unique if the number of records increases. As you said , if you delete one the next...

If you are using an autonumber to create your purchase id then when deleted it will never raise another id of the same number, i.e if you delete ID, "9" then a new record would take on ID="10". the "9" record is lost forever. The error message you are talking about is probably the one referring...

You could use a dcount function to check how many records exist in tblstock2 for each instance of ProductID on an event line, be it a save button or maybe lose focus. If there are less than 1 then run an SQL command line to delete the corresponding empty record in TblStock. This will mean though...

Dave, This will happen..requerying will default any subform back to the first record..however here is a solution. On the event where you are requerying the main form put in this code. I wrote this to cope with a subform within a subform within a main form. Dim DelReccount As Integer...

look up the "Dsum" function....

controls on a continuous form will perform the same operation regardless of which record they are on...what you need to do is build in to the on-click event a conditional email event...i.e email record with ID=Me!ID.....it will only see one id and that will be the current record......maybe?????

Just give us a bit more info... Is there an input form..what is the data source...what is your table relationship??? what do you mean by HTML format?

I assume you have the dbase locked down,i.e Navigation Bar and design rights removed. Also use the Shift By-Pass function. Then you could on the auto exec form run a bit of code to check the date. something like..... If me![date]= #12/12/13# then msgbox "licence expired..contact someone etc...

This is an over simplified explanation to get you on the way.. First you need a log in form to recognise which user is logged in. Have the database open into this form using the auto exec. Hide the nav bar, to avoid people by passing the form. There are many ways to build a log in..again a...

Create a Table .Call it TblDateStore. have 2 fields, a primary, auto number field [ID], and a field called [lastDate] On the After Update event of the date field (I'll call it [date]) you are interested input.. Dim SQLNewItem As String DoCmd.SetWarnings False SQLNewItem = "insert into...
