Message: [QUOTE="Ted, post: 1753178"] in my a2k db my "Registration" form is bound to a table of the same name. each has "Patient Number" in it, and this control is the table's PK. moreover i'm allowing changes to "Registration" form and it is the driving force behind every other table in the db. w/o an entry in "Patient Number", combobox l/u controls in the other forms would not be able to enter a "Patient Number" in the allocated control. w/ that said, i have enabled cascading updates/deletes throughout the db. what i'm writing to learn how to activate is the ability for a msgbox to appear when the user goes to edit the "Patient Number" field inasmuch as i don't believe there's a system generated msg that tells the user what the far reaching consequences will be. thanks in advance, i bet someone'd gone through this b4. -ted [/QUOTE]
