Entering information on a form to populate the remaining open text boxes....I think....

[mzurcher]

Please forgive me, I am not a computer guy by trade... I am in the process of (attempting) to develop a database and application for Parking & Violation Management. I have two tables at this point: "Parking Registration" and "Violations" that are linked by a "Permit #". I have developed a form that will allow the officer to enter either the "Permit" or the "Licence Plate" of a vehicle to run a "Vehicle Check" query to produce specific information for the vehicle in question; which is what I wanted, kind of... The problem is that the resulting data pops up in "table" format, and contains multiple fields, making review of the data difficult due to its lengthy, linear nature. Is there a way to have those results appear in text boxes either on a separate form or the "Vehicle Check" form itself? Is this even the appropriate way to go about the objective?

Any help would be most appreciated. I can post pics or what have you if it helps.

Could just apply filter to form bound to table. Here is one method http://www.datapigtechnologies.com/f...tomfilter.html
