    Custom Error Message

    The unit that enters this information is requiring this as a "business rule", therefore I have to make a required prompt. I figured that using a lookup function would suffice, but they've specifically asked me to do this. I've created a separate table for the data that they will need to...

    Custom Error Message

    The information being entered will be located on a form. I'm just not too good at setting up the syntax for an error message. I'm also confused as to which event procedure I need to have it run on (AfterUpdate, OnExit, etc.)

    Performing Calculations from Two Tables

    That's correct. We enter the checks received (our only form of payment) as one record at a time. We don't need a separate table specifically for parties/customers since they are sporadically received.

    Performing Calculations from Two Tables

    I've attached an example of an entered record in both the Main and Refund forms. The Refund form is based on a query but the recordset property is set to Dynaset so both tables will be modified. I hope this helps addressing my issue. Thanks again for your time
