    Locking Records in Subform

    Hello and thank you in advance for your assistance.



    I have a FORM frm_Layaway that allows a customer to put an item on hold with partial payment. The Payment tab contains a SUBFORM sfrm_PaymentDetails that displays the payments in continuous form view (This allowed the sales person to process multiple payment methods).

    Later I want to allow the customer to finish Paying for the Order perhaps using multiple Payment methods.

    If I call the Payment Subform in Continous Forms View I can't Lock individual Records. What I want to do is make it so that the clerk doesn't accidentally modify or delete an earlier payment.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Jason

    Lock all records in the subform, then when a record (1) gets focus, unlock it, and (2) when it loses focus, lock it.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
