update second table
I have a parts table and a inventory table, I would like to be able to update
the inventory table with the new part number when a new part number is added to the parts table. How would I do this? I have the joins setup now and can add a part number to the inventory table via a combo box. |

You should have tables like these:
TblPart PartID PartNumber other part fields TblPartInventory PartInventoryID PartID PartInventory other part inventory fields Build a form/subform. Base the main form on TblPart and the subform on TblPartInventory. Use this form to enter new parts. When you enter a new part in the main form you will be able to simultaneously enter the inventory of the new part i the subform. BTW, there is a one to one relationship between a part and that part's inventory. Consequently you can include part's inventory in TblPart and not need TblPartInventory.

What is the difference between a part and an inventory item?

there is no difference they are one and the same but I am using a table for
inventory to track Pcs on hand of the part. Sorry about the late delay, Hurricane issues. "Klatuu" wrote: What is the difference between a part and an inventory item? "Xfree" wrote in message ...
