Multiple Record entry on a single form

G

Guest

I am attempting to design a database to, among other things, log the production of widgets. I have created a table with fields for the following; Operation(auto-number), Widget number, part installed, part serial number, employee. The operation number is simply to keep future entries in some order. However, I'd like to enter historical information as well. I would like to create a form to enter the widget number once and to automatically list all my part numbers so a user can simply enter in a serial number and employee for each part #. Is this possible?

One table for the Widgets and one for the parts in the widget.
Relate them and use a form for the widgets and a subform for the parts.
The Northwind Database has similar examples of this. Order with details,
brands with products...
