I am working on a system to request funding. Yesterday I made a database with three tables and a form to enter the data. I had table relationships where you could enter data into the form and the relationship would populate the corresponding tables.
Here is an example:
CfrCost table which includes the following fields:
Cfr#(Primary Key, autonumber), ProjectName, InstallCost, ExpenseRequested,...
CfrProject table
ProjectName (Primary Key, text), CostCenter#, Requestor,...
CfrExplain table
Cfr#(Primary Key, text), ExplainPurchase, DateCompletion,...
I linked the tables where the fields have the same name. When completing my form there were fields in the field list that were the combination of the two related fields. Such as: Cfr#CfrCost_tableCfr#CfrProject_table
I had my form laid out in such a way that the Cfr# would populate through the tables and the ProjectName would do the same. And it was working perfectly.
I accidently deleted this form and in the process of doing so I also changed some names of tables and fields. I tried to redo everything but I can't get it to work. I no longer have the similar concatenated options in the field list I had when I originally made the form. I have no idea how I did this and I am extremely frustrated. If anyone could help I would really appreciate it.
I am a beginner to access so I did this before without any code.
