Relationships and populating fields

S

Shell

I made a one to many relationship database for a horse show. I can enter
data in data sheet view if I enter it on the one side first.
I made two forms for 2 different tables. I can enter in both forms but -- My
related fields are not populated. I thought that the inner join was default
and the related same fields in all of the tables would contain data. I went
to the options and under tables tab the output all fields was not checked so
I checked that box. That did not work though. Is it something with my entity
sub types? I do have object depencancy among my tables. I'm getting confused.
This seems like a great place to get good information. I'm impressed with
the help that the community gives. :)

The output all checkbox relates to queries not tables. Instead of using
separate forms for the two tables, make a single form based on the one side
of the relationship, then add a subform based on the many side.

For more info, look up subforms in help.
