trouble with next button on a filtered form

AccessIdiot

Anyone getting sick of me yet? :D

I have a button on my form that opens a new form but with a filter:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1.     stDocName = "frm_Specimen_Entrainment"
  2.     stLinkCriteria = "[Entrainment_ID]=" & Me![Entrainment_ID]
  3.     DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
  4.  
This works really well except that, as expected, I can't add new records. Interestingly, you can click the "next record" button and it will show a blank form (and then grey out) but the Entrainment_ID goes blank and the record doesn't get saved.

If I change the above code and pass the Entrainment_ID as OpenArgs then I can add a new record. However, I can keep hitting the next button as many times as I want and it keeps adding new records, whether I have actual data in there or not.

I am looking for something in between - the next button goes to a new record, then greys out so I can't keep adding new records until someone hits the "add new record" button.

Is this possible?

Thanks!

Obviously silly but just making sure question - by sql stuff you mean put the DoCmd before and after my Delete statement? :)
Notice that the DoCmd line before the SQL statement(s) is different from the one after them.

I'm a beginner with Javascript and especially cross-browser Javascript. I got this working in IE, but not in Netscape 7. It seems like, in Netscape, every time I click on a button, the focus shifts to that button, so there is no text to be selected. What should I do? Below you'll see some code that I have in one of my forms. I was hoping to have these buttons and when I click on them they would take selected text from a textarea box and...

A couple of easy questions here hopefully. I've been working on two different database projects which make use of multiple forms. 1. Where's the best/recommended placement for command buttons for things like delete, save, edit, cancel buttons - in the footer, or on the form detail section? 2. If in the footer, how do you add them to the tab order?

If I have a number of random applications open, move the mouse cursor to a given position and do a click, the application gets the focus.

I need to put a button that allows the user to move to the next record. On the form, I have a list of employees that are filtered by the company they work for. Obviously, if I use the simple Gotorecord command, it will pull up the next record regardless of what company that employee works for. So... 1) I need the button to take the user to the next record where the company (field is CompanyID) matches the company on the form.

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

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
