Good afternoon,
I am making a database recording vessel day to day activities based on their operational messages sent to an operations centre. I seems to be making good progress however I have come up against two more issues
Data entry is accomplished using a Form, which is stored in a table. The form uses a drop down menu to select a vessel. However when I create a new record in the form, the vessel name is not being stored in the table. I suspect it has something to do with the dropdown menu, which is linked to the vessel tombstone data. Is there a way to fix this?
Second, I'm trying to save data entry time when creating a new record by defaulting the new record fields to the previous entry [items such as vessel CO, sailing order, etc change rarely]. Is there a way to do this without using VBA code? If not then, as a total code noob, how would I code it?
Many Thanks in Advance
D
