Form from mutliple tables

Hi

I want to create a form so that the information I enter will go to multiple
tables. I've tried sub forms but don't like the look of it. I want it to look
like a single form would look if it was linked to a single table.

Regards

Please explain these tables. How are they related? What information do they
contain?

About the only way to do this would be to have an unbound form, with textboxes
and other controls, and a command button (or some other suitable event) that
would open Recordsets on all of your tables, and migrate data from the unbound
form controls into the tables. You would have to provide code for all the
validation of data and relationships (which Access does for you with bound
forms). More power to you if you want to do it, but you'ld really be
reinventing the wheel!
