I can't add any new records using the front end of my Access 2003 database.
I have split it into front and back ends, the back end is in a different
folder and the tables seem to be correctly linked. In the front end forms,
the new record buttons are greyed out and don't do anything. An "add new
record" control button on the forms returns the error message, "You can't go
to the specified record."
If I open the back-end tables I can add new records, but it would be much
easier to use the forms in the front end. It is a fairly complicated
database with multiple linked tables and several forms.
I can see all of the existing records through the front-end forms, I just
can't add new ones.
I have checked the properties on the form selector window and they are all
set to allow new records, edits, deletions, etc. I've run out of things to
look at.
Any suggestions?
