auto update linked fields in linked tables

[Jhowg8]

If I have a lined table, how do I get access to auto enter a record in a linked table using the key field in the primary table.

As I enter data into a main form, I can't figure out how to get that key field to create records in linked tables so that I can enter data into subforms.

I appreciate any help.

As I enter data into a main form, I can't figure out how to get that
key field to create records in linked tables so that I can enter data
into subforms.

You don't. There is never any good reason for creating dummy records before
having something to put in them. And a subform control will quite happily
create the related records when you start typing into a new subform page or
line. It's actually easier than you are trying to make it.

Hope that helps
