Text box unbound question

[pm]

I've added a text box as an unbound field to enter miscellaneous comments in;
however, when I enter something in the first record comment field all the
records populate with the same information. There must be a flag that I can
set to make each comment field unique per record. Thanks in advance for any
assistance.

Unbound means, well, not bound to any field.

The comments that appear to be connected to every record are, in fact,
connected to no record.

Do you have a field in your table to hold the comments? If so, bind the
textbox control to that field.

Hi Jeff,

I do not have a Text field for comments in my table......obviously that's
what I need to do.....Thanks.

If you want to store the values in each record, you need to add a memo field
to the table to store the information. Then bind the text box to this field.
Otherwise, each instance of the text box is just going to show the same
thing.
