If you're talking about entering a series of new records and having the
inspector and support group from one record carry forward to the next group,
you can use the AfterUpdate event of the control holding your data to set the
DefaultValue for the field. From that time forward, until you either manually
change the data or close your form, the data will be entered automatically in
each new record. The syntax is slightly different, depending on the datatype
of the data:
For Text fields
Private Sub YourTextControlName_AfterUpdate()
If Not IsNull(Me.YourTextControlName.Value) Then
YourTextControlName.DefaultValue = """" & Me.YourTextControlName.Value &
""""
End If
End Sub
For Numeric fields
Private Sub YourNumericControlName_AfterUpdate()
If Not IsNull(Me.YourNumericControlName.Value) Then
YourNumericControlName.DefaultValue = Me.YourNumericControlName.Value
End If
End Sub
For Date fields
Private Sub YourDateControlName_AfterUpdate()
If Not IsNull(Me.YourDateControlName.Value) Then
YourDateControlName.DefaultValue ="#" & Me.YourDateControlName & "#"
End If
End Sub
If you're talking about having these fields carry forward with the form being
closed then re-opened netween records, that a little more complicated. If
this is the case post back.
