This is probably an easy question to answer for someone who knows what they're doing, but for me it's gotten rather frustrating. I need a cigarette.
I'm not an access guru, rather just creating this for my course.
I have a database and it has three tables that are applicable
1. Student Roster
Student Key | SSN | Currentclass | Pclass1 | Pclass2| Pclass 3| ___
Pclass 4 | Pclass 5 | Student Name | Phone Number | etc... some other stuff
2. TestStudent
Test Key | TestOrder | TestName | Block | Course |Gradeable
3. Completed Test Student
Student Lock | Test Lock | TestDate | Score | Remarks
Now for my issue. I am in the midst of creating a form to show an entire class (Anywhere between 5 - 18ish students). I want to be able to show, on one form, the grades on 'EVERY' test that each student in the class has taken. I know that this is very possible to do on a report but to meet the needs of the user it has to be editable, thus a form. I tried to put a continous form with a subform and as you all probably know Access told me, politely, to go have relations with myself.
I then spent the better part of 8 hours trolling google and forums to see if someone elses pains could keep me from beating my head into a wall but no luck.
Is there a way for me to do this? Either by working weird magic with forms or by programatically creating controls with vba?
