Is it possible to add a record in one table and have Access automatically
add date from one of the fields into another table??
In more detail:
Table1 has the following fields: Product_ID, Price, Weight etc...
Table2 has the following: Product_ID, Category, Department
I need to add a new product into Table1 and automatically have the
product_id added to Table2.
Anyone care to enlighten me - or point me in the direction of a tutorial??
Many thanks.

Access lacks triggers, so you cannot do this automatically at the engine
level.
If products are always entered into a form, you can use the AfterInsert
event of the form to Execute an Append query statement to insert a record
into Table2.

You could use relationships to link Product_ID in tables 1 and 2. A new
Product_ID could not be added to table 1 unless there was a record in table
2 with that product ID. Anyone needing a new Product_ID would have to 1st
enter it into table1.

Here is my problem:
There is a table "products" in my access database, since some of the

those PRODUCTS from the table, but I was not allowed to do that, because
"there are records related with those PRODUCTS in other tables (e.g. in

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
