how to save

[icemonster]

ok, so i have a main form and a subform. what's the best way to validate data from both forms using only the command button on the main form?

e.g

i have a save and undo button on the main form, i need it to also read any changes/additions with the subform, any helpful links?

you could use the table field validation properties or use the forms BeforeUpdate event to test the fields you are about to save, assuming it is a bound form.

When it isn't a bound form you are responsible to test and save the data.
