    Text Box Control Source

    Hi all,



    Is there a way I can have a textbox on a form record information to another table besides the one assigned to that form? For instance, If I store order info in a different table than customer contact information, can a text box record the name and contact info in a tluCustomerInfo and not tblOrderinfo? Additionally, is there a way a combo box or text field can record its value into both of these tables?

    Thanks guys!

    Anthony

    You will need to have a form and a sub form each bound to a separate table. Look at the videos on this page re: sub forms.
