The definition table in datasheet view is too large for display, thus in a couple of steps. First the form with all Items: Zoom in to the fields of "Crypto": And finally all the descriptive fields of "Omschrijving": With this "A_veld_tbl", with a record for every field in the...

Hi DHookom, I was not in the position to answer till now. In my never ending work on generalization I realized that Forms are quite static, because they contain relevant information about the fields. By excluding this from the Forms, and transfer it to definition tables and/or general modules...

Can you give me an small description what you mean with the "sequences"? It would help me for a better formulation of my postulate. Did they build up experience with "two forms"? I shouted my "Eureka" only recently, after many years of generalization, from the start with Access2.0. I don't...

I have taken a few days for sabbatical leave, to give my mind some rest. I experienced this thread as dominated by a couple of persons, and their admirers, that only shout without trying to understand the underlying principle. "Throw the code over the wall, and we understand it". I must admit...

Hi Edgar_b, I am trying to reply you, but the answers are blocked. I will try lateron. Imb.

I learned a lot in this thread ...

Hi Edgar_, Your question points to the right spot for one of the findamentals of this approach. I will try to explain this as simple as possible. So I will drop for the moment all kind of accompaning remarks. I have ONE flexible form to make a multitude of representations, on the spot. In fact...

I hate to say, but you TOTALLY MISSED the concept, only ventilating your own ideas. Imb.

Hi Josef, You are absolutely right! That is the only point. I agree that a video would have clarified a lot, but I have no expertise to make video. And publishing an example database: the most important part is the generalized code to make it dynamical. You must have quite an experience in...

No Pat, I don't think in that terms, it is nor my style. There are differences, though, because our references are different. For me from the dynamical approach, for you from the standard Access approach. I use words like "flexible" or even "extreem flexible", but not words like "wonderful" of...

Hi Edgar_, I really feel more comfortable in the discussions with you. My purpose is to present a way to develop applications very fast, for non-commercial organizations, that have not the budget to buy commercial software, and don't have the expertise to make these applications themselves. To...

Hi Uncle Gizmo, Well, most of the posts are answers to the posts like yours. In fact it is a waste of effort from both sides. But, to stay positive, I published an example as an alternative to cascaded listboxes. Imb.

I am sorry that the program stuck. I will continue with an example to get the right Dutch postcode depending of "some" crooked data about street and city. You see a form to add a new Person/Relatie. This form is - behind the screen - EXACTLY the same as all other forms. Street and city are...

Hi raziel3, Like many other in this forum, you missed the crux completely. All you people are only too overhasty in your own conclusions how this system works. I don't have predefined forms to fit all, that would make things worser than it already is. I have one dumb form, with only hidden...

Excuse me, I was totally locked in this session. Could not do anything in this forum, and had to start over the computer completely. I will return soon.

Hi Pat, It is hard to start this answer to you. Without knowing what the opinion or the view on a problem or possibility is, it leads more to controverse than to understanding. So I like to know what exactly your use of the cascaded comboboxes is, and why you think the comboboxes are the...

Hi Edgar_, Thank you for your answer. That is a constructive answer in the my struggle to clarify my thoughts about dynamic forms. Next week I am a little short in time, but after that I start. Thank you, Imb.

Hi Pat, Even after two days, the tone of your answer still bothers me. For my feeling you stepped across the border of respectfull communication, especially as a Super Moderator. Imb.
