Need Help Updating Table
I have a form that has some fields on it. When you click a button it opens
another form that the first form passes data to. For instance Form 1 is customer information then you click on open new case which brings up the second form. The member number is passed from form 1 to form 2. You then fill out the form which is linked to an interactions table which logs the notes. When you close form 2 everying is stored in the interactions table except for the information passed from form 1 to form 2. How can I set this up so that the data from form 1 not only shows on form 2 but is updated in the table when form 2 is closed? |

You did not say how form 2 data is updated in the table when form 2 is closed.
Do you know the method used? -- Build a little, test a little. "Brent Sweet" wrote: I have a form that has some fields on it.

Hi Karl,
Ok So basically form 1 has information about the customer, then we click log interaction which brings up form 2. Some of the fields such as member ID are carried over from form 1. Then the rest of the fields are entered by the user interacting with the customer manually. They then close out the form and the table is updated with the information that they entered. The problem we have is the things passed from form 1 to form 2 are not updating in the table, only the stuff the agent manually enters.

They then close out the form and the table is updated with the information
that they entered. I asked how this is accomplished. If you post that information I may be able to tell you how to modify it so the rest of the data is passed. Do you have a one-to-many relationship between the two tables? -- Build a little, test a little.

Brent -
Make sure the fields on the second form that contain the data from the first form are bound to the table that the rest of the fields on form 2 are bound to. -- Daryl S "Brent Sweet" wrote: I have a form that has some fields on it.
