I'm trying to fix a bug in a MS Access 2000 database that tracks sales
prospects & clients. It won't let me create a new employee record,
because "a related record is required in the lookup table". This
lookup table connects employees, companies & addresses, and only
contains the autonumber fields for each connecting table, plus it's own
autonumber field.
I'm using a lookup table because some companies have multiple locations
AND some employees have multiple addresses (mainly mailing, e.g. PO
Box) & physical (where the office actually is). And of course
companies generally have multiple employees.
But I'm having a hard time forcing the database to create a new record
in the lookup table when I want to add a new employee.
Any thoughts? I'm stumped & frustrated.
