I managed to create a form with a subform. The form has date entered and
key person and operator. The subform contains all the information from a log
sheet that was filled out by the operator. They are linking by a LogID field
(autonumber).
It worked on the first database I tried it in (see post entitled "I'm Lost
Here" from yesterday). Since it was such a nifty little time saver I decided
to use it in another database that we use that we were entering the same data
over and over (date entered, operator, and key person). This time however,
every time I try to enter the line items on the subform, I get an error
message that says
You can't assign a value to this object
*It may be an control on a read-only form
*The object may be on a form that is open in design view
*The value may be too large for this field
If I hit okay, it will then allow me to enter data.
Help please
Thanks,
Linda
