Apologies for the Subject Heading!
I am working on a small invoicing app for a local Tyre and Exhaust
Centre. They want to be able to type in the Vehicle Registration
Number and it automatically bring up the customers name and address.
This in itself seems fairly straightforward except that 1 customer can
have many vehicles.
My tables are set up as follows:
TblCustomer (CustID as PK) in one to many with tblVehicle (VehicleID
as PK and CustID as FK)
tblVehicle (VehicleID as PK and CustID as FK) in one to may with
tblInvoice (InvoiceID as PK and VehicleID asFK)
tblInvoice (InvoiceID as PK and VehicleID asFK) in one to many with
tblInvoiceDetai l (InvoiceDetailI D as PK and InvoiceID as FK)
I thought of using a combobox and NotInList but don't know how to get
the data in both tables updated. There are other issues like change
of ownership etc.
Can anyone give any pointers? Thanks in advance for any help.

Each customer may have more than 1 vehicle, but each vehicle's ID
should correspond to a CustomerID in tblVehicle. Creating a query
with VehicleID as input value will pull correspnding Customer info
from tblCustomer.
What data needs to be updated, thought you just needed to pull
customer info. With change of ownership do they still need old owner
info linked to the car, can they just delete the old info. da************* *@talk21.com (David Mitchell) wrote in message news:<c3******* *************** ***@posting.goo gle.com>... Apologies for the Subject Heading!

This question appears to be backwards. If a vehicle can only belong
to ONE owner, then nothing to it. You can do something like load the
combobox with multiple columns...
SELECT Vehicle.VIN, Owner.LastName
FROM Vehicle INNER JOIN Owner ON Vehicle.OwnerID =Owner.OwnerID
ORDER BY Vehicle.VIN, Owner.LastName;
and then refer to the hidden columns in your combobox...
me.cboVIN.Colum ns(0) <==VIN
me.cboVIN.Colum ns(1) <==Owner.LastNa me
Thanks for both your answers, how would I deal with new vehicle
registrations not on the system (for existing and new customers)?

For years I have been using VBA extensively for updating data to tables
after processing. By this I mean if I had to do some intensive processing

existing records, whichever was relevant. This may also include deleting
records.
Now I generally do this by opening a recordset on the source data...

Hi
I'm hoping somebody can help me with the following problem that has occurred
to me.
Suppose I have two tables in an SQL Server database. Let's call these tables
A and B. Assume that A has two fields: a primary key and another holding a
string. In table B there are three fields: a primary key, a foreign key
(which links to the primary key in A) and other field holding a string.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
