i need entry form where 1 organization enters reporting period and name only
once and choose to enter other data/information into different tables?
You'll have to give us a lot more information than THAT.
What is your table structure? Bear in mind: tables are the foundation;
build them FIRST, and then design forms to fit, rather than starting
with forms.
It sounds like a Form based on a table with the reporting period and
name, with Subforms based on other tables, might be a solution; but
since I have no idea what types of "other data" you're describing I
can't help much!
