One Form to enter/get data in two linked tables with 1 to many lin
Hello,
I am a new user with a variant of a contacts database. Table 1 Hospitals, with one primary contact person info. Table 2 Volunteers in the hospital, can be many How would I go about designing one form which allows entry of the volunteer information, assigns an existing hospital or can create a new hospital with the volunteer information. On retrieving a volunteer's information, it must display the hospital/primary contact information. TIA, John |

On retrieving a volunteer's information, it must display the hospital/primary contact information. TIA, John Since there's (apparently) a one (hospital) to many (volunteers) relationship, you should start with a Form based on the Hospitals table, with a Subform based on the Volunteers table. You'ld start by either entering or navigating to an existing hospital, and enter the volunteer data for that hospital into the subform. -- John W. Vinson [MVP] |
