I am trying to write to different tables depending on a user selected variable (ie: depending on the year selected, the data would goto the correct table). Am I able to setup my fields in my forms to reference a predefined variable, then from there write the data to the correct table? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, there.
If the tables have the same structure you may simply change Form.RecordSour ce after user has entered a year in let us say [ctlYear] control.
example, supposed tables are named: tblYear2001, tblYear2002 etc -
Private Sub ctlYear_AfterUpdate()
-
Me.RecordSource = "tblYear" & ctlYear
-
End Sub

dave,
thanks i'm playing around w/ that right now trying to get it to work for me. this doesnt really apply to your msg, but i thought i would post it since it gives a little more detail:
this is for a database i'm using for a golf outing. i have a table w/ static information (all participant data), then 2 tables set up w/ data that is specific to the year that are linked to the participants (sponsorships and donations). i need a way to have the sponsorship and donations be year specific. whereas the participant database will just keep growing and getting updated w/ any new info.

After finally figuring out that the Linked Table manager is no longer
an add-in in Access 2003 I now discover that it does not display any
of my linked tables in the 'select linked tables to be updated' list.
Although I have about 30 linked tables in my application, absolutely
none of them are showing up in the list. I compacted and repaired,
but that didn't have any effect. Has anyone else seen this problem?
If so, how is...

We have a new project here, one that I have never tried maybe its easy
I don't know yet.
We have people that have records dating back over 5 yrs on a sql

We have to build an access 2003 database for data entry of the people
then pull data from the sql server to fill in data for these records.
that sounds good....except to start I need record # and date....no
