You can't go to the specified record

Tony,
It's going to take a real guru to help you change the
contents of the standard message box. However, you can
try something else in the meantime:
1. Create a pop-up form containing a text box with
your explanation of the error message.
2. Add a Command button to your user form which will
open the pop-up form. You can caption the button with
something like "Error help". You can also set
the "Display When" property of the button to "Screen Only"
so that if you print the form the button won't show (keeps
the form tidy).

Just an idea...

Good afternoon,

I have created a form for data entry and I have a list
box that is populated with the possible values that must
match the list. The form is bound to a table were the PK
is set to no duplicates.
When keying a duplicate value the user recieves a message box stating:

"You can't go to the specified record"

I would like the message box to give the user a detailed
message stating that this is a duplicate value not "you
can't go to the specified record" . Can anyone please
assist me on this matter....
