Old Newbie Question

[Guest]

I have Access 2003. I have a database created by a non-profit (that works
for them). I am in the process of adding our non-profit's data to it.
However, it seems to be taking longer than I expected. The Contributor's
table is not linking to the Contributor's form and I can't figure out why.

I worked with Access 97 several years ago but let my skills get rusty. I've
looked through my old manuals but am not having much luck. I tried looking
at the Northwind database but can't find how they are connected.

Thanks!

Open the Contributor's form in design view and check it's Recod Source.

I did. It gives the name of the table I'm trying to link it to.

When you go into the table view, and click on that table....does it open?

Perhaps you need to use the linked-table manger to connect a "split"
database.

I changed Data Entry to No and it fixed it.
