Hi guys,
Little problem I hope you can help with. I have a form
which is to be used for mass data entry, using Acess
rather than Excel so that many of the variables in the
form can be updated easier. Certain fields in the form
need completing for only one record and can be carried
across, and some need to be completed for each record.
For example; I might start with a date, an invoice number
and a client name - I would then proceed to enter line by
line (record by record) data to go on that invoice.
I have managed to keep some of the data static by using a
combo box which does not clear after each record is
created, however I can't seem to do that with the date
field. I tried and failed miserably to send Ctrl + with
Sendkeys but didn't get anywhere. Is it at all possible
to make these fields remain in place throughout all
records of the data set? Should I be looking to use a
subform for this? And can a subform return the static
data for each entry along with the input data?
