When you create a form based on a Select Query, how do you ensure that changes you make to that form don’t change the tables that underlie the query?
Let me give you a better example. I’ve done a query of two tables, Customers and Addresses.
I’ve created a query called Trips which has a form. With that Trip form I need to add additional fields as well as make changes to fields from the Customer and Address table query.
What I don’t want is for the changes I make from the Trip Form to alter the default info from the Customer and Address tables. These changes are one time only.
In essence I want to “lock” the Customer and Address tables. I want to be able to read the Customer and Address records, even copy those records, but not actually alter or make those changes permanent within the underlying records.
I assume there is a “read only” feature for some fields.
