    Combining Columnar and Tabular formats in the same form

    I'm building a Quote database. It's similar to an invoice database with a header and a detail table.
    I'd like to create a form where the user can enter and continue to view the header data as they enter
    the detail data. I'd also like the tabular detail portion remain on the screen as more products are added.


    Is this even possible in Access?

    Thanks & regards,
    Bill Davis

    Hi Bill

    Yes it can be managed by using Main Form & Sub Form layout

    Can you upload a zipped copy of your database?

    Hi Bill

    You need to setup your relationships as shown in the attached.

    The related QuoteID in the Subform now automatically populates when you add a new Detail record for the selected Quote #

    The Quote is in the Main Form with the Quote Details in the Child Subform
