Hi folks
I have a frmMain that is used to add details about projects. I have another form (subform if you will) frmContacts (the backend tables are linked to each other) and this will be related contact details. I don't have anymore room on the main form and I can't use a Tab control.
So I was thinking of using a command button to open the Contact Form to add the details. I've tried to use the Command button wizard to link the forms so that I can click to open the contact form I can enter the details. However, The dialog tells me that there has to be a related record in the Main table etc. So I need to do more than this.
does any one know how this would work? I'm not really sure if I need to add code so that I can use the subform like this. Or maybe there's another way?
Thanks for any help that I get on this one
