hi, just a note to anyone else who is having a similar problem. Changing the record set worked for the query but then when using the query as the source of a form i couldn't enter data. It worked just changing the 'Allow Aditions' property to False, then data can still be enter but no new...

thanks that did the trick, cheers dan

Hi, I have a table with the ID calculated by an autonumber, I have a query to return a few records and I just wondered if anyone knew how to stop showing the blank record with just the ID field showing (AutoNumber)? cheers Andy

thanks very much, didn't realise what you meant first time, works fine. Cheers guys Andy

I have the form which filters the records using a combo box which works fine, I want to allow this form to be a subform, but when i do this the filtering no longer works, produces error mentioned above. I have tried changing the code to Me.Filter instead of the DoCmd which seemed to work...

Hi, I have a table [Bowler Details] and an attached form and also a table [Bowler Scoresheet]. The attached form for the bowler scoresheet takes all the [Bowler Scoresheet] fields and then a couple of the [Bowler Details] fields. It displays the details fine, but it doesn't let me input data...

Hi, I have an Excel worksheet as an object on one of my forms, I want to know how I can reference a single cell from within VB, as I will needed to read ad write values from this worksheet. Any help would be much appreciated cheers Andy

Hi, I would like to change the size of the tabs on my form so they are all the same and not just the size of the text inside, I can't find a property to do this as the width is the size of the form displayed by each tab rather than the caption part, which I want to be constant through out all...

Hi, I am trying to use code to create a new record in a table, I have found code in a book and online help which looks as if it would work. But I get an error at the first line: Dim dbs as Database, rst as DAO.RecordSet it doesn't recognise 'Database' and just says: User-defined type not...

cheers i'll try that, but i want to beable to create a specific number of records when the form loads. Then this would allow the user to select a team from 1 to 8 and then enter the details for a team. So what i need is to create 8 records and then have a combo box to beable to show each of the...

Is there anyway of using tabs to show an individual record, i'm making a bowling system and just want to have 8 tabs to represent the record for each of the 8 teams that will be in the league. Each team has a unique Id that can identify the team. Or is there a way of simply saying [Form Field]...

Problem solved, i just ran the query i created that displayed the correct field and then used the auto form to show this record. It doesn't open it in the form i wanted but it'll do the job and saves trying to use the filter which wasn't working. thanks anyway andy

problem solved! i just ran the query then created an autoform on that result, did the trick.

Yeah i have tried this and had no luck, i try: DoCmd.OpenForm "Bowler Details", , , BowlerID = Forms!Teams!BowlerID1 this loads the form with only one record but all fields are blank apart from bowlerID which has autonumber, will this field being an automnumber make a difference? if i try...

I'm having trouble displaying a single record in a form, i have a query which returns the correct data (ie. the required record) but this is in a datasheet format, is there any way to display this in a form or translating this querie to open the form showing the record here is the SQL query...

a couple of questions for part 1 do you mean using the form filter as in: Me.Filter = "[BowlerID] = ID" Me.FilterOn = True This is basically what i want to do, so it is more like a search for a record by the ID rather than a filter as it will only return one record, but this filter only works...

All i want to know is given the ID (primary key) of a record within a table, how can i display this (and only this) record on the associated form. Sure it is simple but i'm stuck and getting no where cheers Andy Swinburne
