    Dynamically search multiple fields

    That is what I was finding too, but I followed the instructions exactly and it still wouldn't work. Just thought someone else might see something that I am looking straight over.

    Dynamically search multiple fields

    I can't get the modification search tool working posted by John Big Booty here https://access-programmers.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=188663. It doesn't make sense as I have used it before, have looked at my previous dbs and my db looks exactly the same as the previous ones that work. What...

    Auto update of a field depending on the number of entries

    I tried making a query and putting some criteria in the field childCarersCarerID of if [qryallowedsum].[CountOfChildCarersCarerID]=[tblCarers].[CarersAuthorisedCareFor] then [frmCarers].[CarersAvailable].value=0 but it didn't work. Not sure how to write criteria. Was this even going...

    Can't enter data in related table

    What do I need to do to get my subforms on my child form to look like yours: I can only get my form to look like this: I understand you need to set it to a continuous form but how do you seperate the label from the text box for each field to put in the header?

    SELECT tblCarers.CarersID, [CarersLastName] & " ," & [CarersFirstName] AS Carer FROM tblCarers ORDER BY tblCarers.CarersLastName; I understand that you are selecting the carerID row from tblCarers to identify that record. I just had some questions: 1. Do the brackets specify field data that...

    Can't enter data in related table

    That was great, thanks Bob. I tried to do that but when I dragged the notes form onto the carer form, I deleted the ID field instead of hiding it. You helped me work that out so thanks :)

    Can't enter data in related table

    I originally had a notes table in which I was going to store notes regarding everyone in the various tables, such as carers, notes, children, etc. I couldn’t get that working so I decided to create a table for each entity that I wanted to record notes for but that won’t work either. I don’t...

    The problem with that is I can't enter any notes on the form for a previous record as it won't show any previous records. It will only show new records and I don't know why.
