Hello Marhall,
I cannot reply to your msg because an error server occurs. So i send a new msg.
Yes. I want only record related to a given order to be displayed, particularly records I’m creating for a new order.
So, first I have a form with general info on the order (ordered, date, payment…). Then, trough a command button I open another form (I don’t’ like using a subform) that I use to write the data for the detail. This second form is bound to a table where all details for all orders are collected. Obviously this table has a field named “orderID†which I can use to filter/search for data.
What I want is that when I open the second form (the one dedicated to the detail), I can see only three blank textboxes ready to be filled with data. Then by clicking on another button named “add new†I would like to see three new blank textboxes just below the ones already filled. And so on as much new record as can fit on the screen. Then, if I add more record I will use the scrollbar to look at record previously added.
I want to look at old records because people who do orders sometimes stop working on order to make some other thing (i.e. answering to phone…) and having visible all detail-record for the order he is going to create help him avoiding double some items. I don’t’ want to copy any info from past records. Each record on detail-form is unique for a certain order.
And it is also for aesthetic: it is horrible to see a form that is 14 cm height with just 3 blank text boxes on top… and an header height 2,5 cm with OrderID and some other info.
That’s it.
Thanks for any (more) help
