Microsoft Access

I have two forms, one and two, addressing two related tables, one and two. The connecting key is IDNumber. When working in form one at (say) IDNumber 5 on table one, it wish to open form two displaying IDNumber 5 on table 2.

How can I build an expression to do this, please?

For upcoming training course dates see: Pricing & availability

RE: Microsoft Access

Hi Philip,

This is fairly simple.

1. Add a COMMAND BUTTON to your form.

2. When the wizard appears, choose FORM OPERATIONS and then OPEN FORM
(click NEXT)

3. Choose the form you want to open from the list
(click NEXT)

4. Choose the first option OPEN THE FORM AND FIND SPECIFIC DATA TO DISPLAY
(click NEXT)

5. LINK to common fields - IDNUMBER
(click NEXT)

6. Choose if you want text or an image on the button
(click NEXT)

7. Name the Comand Button for future reference - OpenRelatedFormRecord or something appropriate.
(click FINISH)

Done.

Regards

Richard
