hi,
i have a fairly complex DB with lots of demographic info. On one form there is new student information that is continuously added, and there is a buton that leads to extended information for the student. I chose this as a design option since it is simple, and it does not add lots of data to the initial form that is loaded (which takes some time anyway).
When a new record is added, is there a way i can get the extended info button to open the same new record? With already stored records it works, but when the new record is added, the extended form does not link to it, but rather assumes it is another new record.
What the users are doing now is add a new record, close the form, open it again, and then add the extended info. Any way around this?
The DB is in Access97.
Cheers
