Hiya
Finally trying to do something for work, and one thing I was thinking about for ages is a database.
So, created one in Access 2010 (at home). It has a table1, and then two forms.
Only been working on it today, and very new to Access, so its trial and error time for me
Anyway, most of the Text Boxes I think are okay being unbound, as each form has its own entries.
However, there is one that I would like linked. Its one like a certain number you designate for a particular item (not a sequential number).
As there are two forms, can you easily link one form to the other, for the one field?
The box is Text7 on the form I would like Text23 from the first form I would like to be linked.
Looked at Control Source, typed Text23, went to View Form View, and then tapped some numbers into Text23 on the 1st form. Didn't seem to work, so I bet I'm missing something very simple
I can grab screenshots, but the pc I'm doing it on has issues, so cannot go onto webpages (using a laptop to type this).
Thanks
