Deleted then added record won't show in form

S

Shannon

A record was deleted from an owner table which has a property table related
to it. I couldn't add it back using the form, but could in the table. Now
the record exists with a different record number in the table than in the
query & won't show at all in the form. Also, the property form will not
accept a new property. I'm a rare user, but someone wants to pay me to fix
this problem & I created it, trying to see what happens when a deletion is
made. Thanks in advance.

Next time play with a copy.
You will have to manually go into the property table and change all the
records that have the old owner reference.
BUT FIRST BACKUP BUT FIRST BACKUP
Run an unmatched query on the property table and verify the all the property
without a match belongs to that one owner.
You should be able to use an update query withj old owner designation as
criteria and update to new.
