    Adding value to a field which is not available in the the table while

    I have a field "Sender's Name" and the value is usually selected from the Sender table. But I want that if a name is not available in the sender's table, the Data Entry Operator can type and add the same. Pl. advise how to do it.

    Record must be added to the Sender table. This can be accomplished 'on the fly' during data entry but will require VBA code in combobox NotInList event. Review: http://www.blueclaw-db.com/access_no...ed_example.htm
