I have 3 tables that I am entering data into on the same form.
I have the people table with name, date of birth...
There's an occupation table and a children table listing their kids
all three tables use an autonumber as their key and that number needs to be
the same so that they link together correctly. I want to be able to make the
numbers match. I tried making a form with 3 auto-number boxes on it, one for
each of the 3 tables. But only the first box gets a number put into it.
I think part of the problem is that I have the fields in the children table
looking up their values in the people table.
basicaly I'm new at this and the dummies book only got me so far, lol. If
anyone can help I'd really appreciate it.
