I am looking to use DCount to see if a value (Student ID) is already in the back end table, by getting DCount to return the value of times (if at all) the student ID appears in the table.
I've tried coding it in several different ways but none seem to work... thus I was wondering if anyone had any tips?
Back end table: Student Options
Table Field: Student ID
Form Name: Option Form
Form field name: StudentID
The value i'm searching for/using look like: A762939
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
- 'studentused = DCount("[Student ID]", "Student Options", "[StudentID] = '" & Me.StudentID & "'")
Also how could i code it that if a user had previously entered a record they could chose to amend it at a later date?
Thanks
