Hello, please advise if the following form design idea is even
possible, or if there is a better way. I am trying to add/update/view
multiple records at once on a single form.
Use:
Multiple laboratory tests are conducted on a sample (from Samples
table). Each test result (2 data points) is stored separately in the
Results table. I would like to enter and view all of the results for
the sample on one form.
Design:
Create a form with many unbound text boxes, one pair for each possible
test result. After data is entered, click a "Save" button which runs
VB code to store the data. The code would create new Results table
records for all of the data entered, then copy the data from the form
to those records. To view the data, the form's OnCurrent could run VB
code to build a record set of Results for the current sample, then
copy the data onto the form.
Is this reasonably possible? Is there a better way to add/update/view
multiple records at once on a single form? Thank you.
