Access 2002 Form

I have a form in (Access 2002 File Format) that has 61 combined Text
boxes, Combo boxes, and List boxes... 11 of those fields are in the
Form Header, the rest are in the Detail area... I also have 43 Command
Buttons in the detail area, each with a "strtextval " code to a certain
text box... 10 of those Command Buttons are in the Form Footer area,
with a macro assigned to them to go from page to page....

I duplicated this form, so that I can have a Data Entry Form, and a
Non-Data Entry Form...

My problem exists in the Non-Data Entry Form... Once I open the form
and search for a RecNum and find it, it won't let me update
information. (i.e. Name, State, Phone Number, etc...) The only way I
can update this info is by choosing one of my Command Buttons. Once
the Cmd Bttn executes, I have to delete what the Cmd Bttn just did, in
order for me to go ahead and update any other info on this form.

On the Default Open Mode I've selected the Shared option, and on the
Default Record Locking I've selected the Edited Record option.

Do I have to many fields on one form?

I've created Forms similar to this one in Access97 with no problems...

Thanks for taking the time to read this... I appreciate your help..

What command are you using to open the form? Sounds like you are opening it
ReadOnly. If one of your command buttons alters a value then the ReadOnly
option is overridden (for that record).

Please help I don't know if this is possible but what I would really like to do is to use On Error Goto to capture the code that is being executed when an error occurs. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance

Hi, Ive got 3 forms, (a subform within a subform within a form) and when I refresh the outermost form, Access closes and offers to send an error report. The forms worked fine a few weeks ago, but now they cause this error in Access 2002 (Access 2000 is fine) Each of the sub forms use values from their parent forms to produce results.

I have a client who is using Access 2002/2000 (the database itself is written in 2000), and is considering migrating to Access 2003. Any recommendations on whether Access 2003 is worth the migrate, or should he stick with 2002? Thanks! Neil
