I am new to the forum, and to Access 2003 (the version I'm using), and I hope I have put this question in the right place. I'm using a form, but based on my research, I think I need to create a query, so here's my question for the community:
I have a 4-part form divided into tabs. I have a check box called "Additional Parts?" on the first tab (called "Part #1") that I want to check automatically if something is entered in a field called "Qty 2" in the second tab (called "Part #2"). If nothing is entered in "Qty 2," the "Additional Parts?" check box should be unchecked.
How do I make this happen?
Please be aware that I don't know much about Access 2003, so tell me as much as possible about where to go to enter the information. I have found in much of my searching for answers to my many questions, people on the forums tend to expect a certain level of knowledge about the program. Please just figure I have no knowledge and need my hand held throughout.
Thanks!
