Hi, this is my first post in this forum and I am new to Access. I have a grasp of most of the basics though.
I am designing a telephone enquires database based on this template from Microsoft.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-gb/templates/TC010178391033.aspx?CategoryID=CT101426031033
I am creating it from scratch so that I know how it all works but the one thing I cannot do is get the call details section to work.
As I understand it the calls list is a subform (displayed as a datasheet) and the call details is another subform (displayed like a text box). Each record selected in the calls list brings up the relevant calls details field for that record (data can also be entered here).
I have spent many hours trying to find the solution by copying this template but I am missing something critical.
I am using Access 2003 at home with a view to convert it for use at work with Access 2002.
If someone can offer some assistance I would be very pleased.
