Data Entry

S

sneeze

I have a Table called SNEEZE. It contains 6 fields eg A
(date),B(name),C(invoice),D(details),E(units),F(price). Fields A,B,C are
static and D E and F change. There are 5 transactions but A B and C remain
but D E and F change. I would like to create a table or form that allows me
to input A B and C but I can enter data for the other 5 transactions. End
result should be 5 records in Table SNEEZE

sneeze,

Sounds more like a one to many scenario, so you would need two tables...
One for fields A, B and C and the the second talbe for the balance of the
fields. Perhaps if you explain a wee bit more of what you are trying to
accomplish we could help you better set up your tables.

I'm also going to suggest you read the below for a better understanding of
relational database design...
