Additional Detail Lines
Is there anyway of adding additional detail line on a
form? eg Detail a = Holds current detail in a table (only showing active sevices) Detail b = Holds current detail in a table (only showing inactive sevices) Detail c = Holds blank fileds for additional data to be entered (excluding inactive sevices) Does anybody understand what I am asking, if so is there anyway of doing this? |

In design view of the form, there are normaly form
headers/footers, and a detail line. The detail line holds the main information from a table that you have selected as its data source. I am attempting to see if i can have more than one detail line, as by default only one is available. Any ideas now? -----Original Message----- I for one am not following you.

Without knowing more about your table structure and what
active and inactive services are, it is difficult to be specific. Assuming that active services and inactive services are from queries based on the same table, subforms based on the queries might do what you need, but this is sort of looking at it backwards, as the relationships between tables (assuming there is more than one) are where this really needs to start. For a subform to function in concert with the main form depends on the proper parent/child relationship between tables. Something that could get you closer to what you need, whether with forms or subforms, is to set the default view (Format tab of the property sheet) to Continuous Form (or to Datasheet). -----Original Message----- In design view of the form, there are normaly form headers/footers, and a detail line.
