Default Dynamic recordset

The form will use the Recordset's data as the data for the form. It works
best for DAO recordsets. ADODB recordsets can be used, but the form will be
a read-only form (no editing of data allowed).

Ken,

Are you saying that the form will take on the records of the recordset
variable or the other way around. I have never had experience setting the
recordsource of a form from a variable. I wish I had.

Orna,

I may be misreading what you are attempting to do, but it seems like you
are trying to set the Roecordsource property of the form
[Form_frmDoobloFileDetails] from a recordset variable:

Set Form_frmDoobloFileDetails.Recordset = rsNew

I believe this is wrong, however I may be misunderstanding or not
familiar with your method.


Mark, one can set the Recordset property of a form to a recordset object.
What the poster is trying to do is a legitimate action in ACCESS.
