Autocreate records from continuous form
Hi,
I have a continuous form based on a query that gives a list of contacts, which I then use for a mail merge. Now I wish to know whether it is possible for me to add a field in the form header where the user can select a date and a type which will then create new records in a new table that would be called communication ? Here's how my DB kinda looks... Contacts --------------- ContactID ContactName .... Project ---------- ProjectID ProjectName .... Calls ----------- CallID ContactID (relation) ProjectID (relation) .... Goal would be to have a new table : Communication ---------------------- CommunicationID ContactID ProjectID Date Type (combo) So that via the continuous form I create records automatically so that I can link the sent fax info. Is that possible and if yes... How ? Thanks, Ben -- Novice |
