pasted record in locked form crashes database
i have a form with a subform and on the main form i have a toggle button that
locks the subform.. with this code [Forms]![F_Parts_Search]![F_Parts_Browse_All].Locked = bLock this worked fine until i found out that a record can be selected and pasted but then because of a unique index on a control you cant move on and cant edit the field with the unique index so youre stuck.. i cant seem to get the following code to prevent additions if that is what i want to do?? i get a runtime error 438 "object does not support this property or method block is a boolean Me![F_Parts_Browse_All].AllowEdits = not bLock or this either [Forms]![F_Parts_Search]![F_Parts_Browse_All].Form.AllowEdits = Not bLock i cant use enable = block because i have a few double click fields to open other records any ideas would be greatly appreciated Barry |

You can prevent people from selecting the record by turning off the RecordSelector in design view. i cant seem to get the following code to prevent additions if that is what i want to do?? i get a runtime error 438 "object does not support this property or method block is a boolean Me![F_Parts_Browse_All].AllowEdits = not bLock or this either [Forms]![F_Parts_Search]![F_Parts_Browse_All].Form.AllowEdits = Not bLock try using xxxxxxx.AllowAdditions = not bLock i cant use enable = block because i have a few double click fields to open other records any ideas would be greatly appreciated Barry Hope this helps, Stephen |

Thanks for your response I currently have the record selectors = false to keep access from locking up however i would like to toggle them off and on when i un-lock the form with vba but i get the same error 438 "object does not support this property with a hundred combinations of the following two lines Me![F_Parts_Browse_All].AllowAdditions = False Me![F_Parts_Browse_All].RecordSelectors = Not bLock This line works fine though.. so my syntax must be correct.. Me![F_Parts_Browse_All].Locked = bLock Thanks Barry "Stephen Raftery" wrote: "Barry A&P" wrote: i have a form with a subform and on the main form i have a toggle button that locks the subform.. with this code [Forms]![F_Parts_Search]![F_Parts_Browse_All].Locked = bLock this worked fine until i found out that a record can be selected and pasted but then because of a unique index on a control you cant move on and cant edit the field with the unique index so youre stuck..
