    Button for Each Record in Table embedded within Form

    Hi All,

    Is there a way that I can create something like a button for each record in a table? Performance wise, I'm not sure if this is the economically efficient. But, I read a post from another forum that troubleshoots putting something like a button into a table, for each record. Below is the link:

    My problem is, I'm new to MS Access 2010. So, there's a lot of middle stuff that I don't know. Would someone be able to help me out?

    Thanks!

    Im not sure a button could do what you want. But you could Use a button on a continuous forms layout. You can also use the afterupdate event for a record, so that you can flag data to be handled a certain way after it is saved.

    Hi Perceptus,

    Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I'm starting to lean towards just putting the button outside of the table, and using sometype of setfocus on record and prompt the button to go to the record for edits. :T

    Unless, someone else has a workaround.
