Event procedure on selection (1 Viewer)

[guinness]

Can't quite get my head round how to write this but I know it can be done.

I have a form with a field called duration.
The user selects AM,PM or All Day from a list
If the user chooses All Day I want to create a duplicate record

DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdCopy
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRecordsGoToNew
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdSelectRecord
DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdPaste

However I would like the duration in the first record to be AM and the Second record to be PM

So something like Iif [Duration], "All Day" run procedure
Else Iif do nothing.

Does that make sense?

What exactly do you mean by "duplicate record"?
What do you plan on doing with Duration?

Hi JDRAW

Litteraly create an exact duplicate of the record that I have created so that I now have two records. One starting AM and one PM.

The duration says whether a person is on an activity for a full day, a morning or an afternoon which I need to know in order to schedule free time.

Hope that makes sense
