Help with Action Buttons and putting a code behind it.

[Guest]

Hi

I need to make buttons in Access and on click it prints out a text.

I've included examples, please have a look.

2. AccessExample.jpg ( I want to add buttons like what I did in Excel )

Can anyone guide me on how to make it, I'm new to Access.

Thank you for your time.

No, you can't add buttons to a table, or to a form in datasheet view. What
you can do is to embed a form in datasheet view as a subform within a main
form, and add the buttons to the main form. Take a look at the Orders form
in the Northwind sample database for an example of a main form with an
embedded subfrom.
