    Adding Check box to add more records

    My boss wants to add a check box in our form that if "checked" more fields appear and the user can add more information. if not checked, then the fields are not displayed....



    *By the way, we need to add more columns to our original table, right?.... for those possible additional fields...

    -----------------------------
    From a marketing perspective.... "additional customer encounters?" -- if checked, then add information....

    Thanks

    Er? What's the question? I guess you want to know if this is possible and, if so, how to do it.

    Yes, it's possible but we need more information about the requirement.

    Will it be the data entry person who checks/unchecks this box or will it be something inherent in the data that determines the check?

    Yes, you will need to add columns for the additional data if they do not already exist. Is the form based on one table or linked tables?

    Get back to us with more detailed explanation and we can help.

    Especially explaining whether you're truly talking about 'adding more records,' as your thread title says, or simply having additional Controls appear on your Form, as the body of your thread suggests.

    The problem with making anything foolproof...is that fools are so darn ingenious!
