Hello all
Form A (pk) & Form B (fk)
I want to display my Form B empty whenever is the first time, that the
pk form Form A, is enter. I click a button to open Form B. BUT if the
pk from Form A already exist, then show the information from that
record, when I open Form B. Basically have the option to create a new
record OR show existing information depending if the pk exist or its a
new one.
I know this can be done using subforms, but it wont work for me because
I have 17 forms that I need to relate. So I guess I cant put 17 forms
using subforms, I mean I can but it will be a complete mess, so I dont
want that.
Right now Form B is always showing the option to add a new record
(acFormAdd)
Can anybody help me here pleaseeeee

Really? Maybe your design is either (a) overly complex or (b) your
structure is not right. What is your database going to do? It just
sounds like this database is way more complicated than it should be.
Well yeah, for me it look complicated.
Its an interface call: Compressor Survey Application. It has 18 tables.
eg. compressors, cups, stages, cylinders,case parts assemblies,
gaskets, etc. Each table has in avg. 9-11 fields. This is the way it
works: Load the Location form, enter the location info, then click on
the compressor button. This compressor form uses the location_pk from
location form. Then you enter all the info in the compressor form and
click, stages. It takes you to the stages form, using the
compressor_pk. And so forth. You keep moving adding and adding
depending on your compressor. I can create multiple compressors for one
location, multiple stages for one compressor, multiple cylinders for
one stages....and so forth.
So I dont think the subforms will be a good idea for these. Thats why I
have created multiple forms, and interact b/w those form via buttons.
Right now everything is working fine, I only need that last thing.
Any ideas???
Thankss

I have two forms that both open the same (3rd) form.
The third form does the same thing, but a little differently depending
on which form it is opened from. Is there a way I can check which
form is open so I can flag how the third form acts?
Thanks for any help

I did a few searches, but couldn't come up with a clear answer to my
question. So here it is: If I am in an open form (MyForm1), is it
possible to set the RecordSource of an un-opened form (MyForm2). I
want to use the OnClose Event of MyForm1. But I do not want to have
the MyForm2 open when this happens. My wish it to have the
RecordSource of MyForm2 permanently changed by the OnClose Event of
MyForm1. Can this be done ?

Hello,
I'm toying with the idea of loading a MenuStrip (VB.Net 2005)
dynamically based on who is logged into my system. Every user has

certain ones.
I have a table that stores the menu item name, parent item (if
applicable), display order, etc. so that I can dynamically load my

Hi
I have an access database called Sales.Mdb
In vb.net 2005, I'd like to open it. Which I can do.
What I can't figure out is how to figure out if Sales.Mdb is open already.
If so, I want to open that instance.
Any ideas how I would do this?
Thanks

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
