Data Entry
Hello
I have 3 tables as follows: tblCompany (lngCompanyNumberCnt[PK], strName) tblSubject (lngSubjectNumberCnt[PK], strName) tblLink (lngCompanyNumberCnt[FK], lngSubjectNumberCnt[FK]) I have an input form with tblCompany fields in the main form and tblSubject fields in the subform. To enter Subjects used at each Company, I select the Company in the main form and then type the Subject Number in the first field of the subform (which displays the related Subject name). I get the subject number from a paper-based report. The report is many pages long as there are thousands of subjects, so this procedure is very timely. Is there a non paper-based way of doing this procedure (i.e. electronic)? TIA Martin |

Where do you get the "paper-based report" from? If it comes to you in an electronic format then there is probably a way to incorporate it into your database. -- Lynn Trapp MS Access MVP www.ltcomputerdesigns.com Access Security: www.ltcomputerdesigns.com/Security.htm |

Then create a combobox to select the information you want in the form.
