One form to multiple tables?

Is it possible to link data entered into one form back to multiple tables
without using subforms? Or are subforms required to do this?

I have a form that contains quite a bit of information. Specifically,
though, each record has the potential of having multiple comments from users
at any given time. I'd like to bind the comments (+date, +user) back to a
different table than the rest of the form. Can this be done?

It sounds like you might be trying to work from a form to the tables.

In MS Access, you start with the tables, then build forms to display the
data.

One reason for using a main form/subform construction is to display
(add/edit/...) data that is related as "parent to children".

Describe how your data is related to get more suggestions on how to design
forms to support it...
