I have a database which has a main form and a subform. When a record has been chosen on the main form the user then opens the subform which all records pertaining to the main form record. What I would like to be able to do is a field to be automatically entered when the user adds a record to...

I have a database in which I am trying to set up a form and a subform (the forms are already created). I am trying to create a one-to-many link between the tables but all I get is a one-to-one. I have read the "help " but I am still stuck at square one. Can anyone help me? Thanks for any input.

I have a database which has a main form and a subform. Each record on the main form can have several subform records attached to it. Is it possible to have a command button which will allow copying and pasting of the subform record, as all the information could be the same bar one field? I...

I keep getting the Microsoft Jet Database Engine stopping use of the database with Error 3197 - saying that "you and another user are attempting to change the same data at the same time". I have no record locks on and as there are only 6 of us in the office (not all of whom use the d/base) we...

Not only is one record having problems with its memo field, it is now spreading to others. I have had no other problems previously with this field. Does anyone know of anything the user might be doing that could cause the field to put up the message #Error# when trying to enter data in the...

I have a database of over 200 records. The form includes a memo field which normally seems to function perfectly but for one record (always the same one) it keeps saying it cannot save the record as someone else is using it. As there are only five people in the office it is easy to check this...

I am experiencing problems with locked records. Users are being denied access to records, the system stating that someone else is accessing the record, even when only one person is in the database. This happens randomly and mostly occurs when using the "Find" function. I only starting...
