I'm new to access and this forum, so sorry for such a basic question. I'm trying to tweak the "customer service" template. I want to have the ability to add a 2nd customer, and three other people to each matter record (realtor, other attorney, loan officer, etc.). I can add the field names, and I try to duplicate the properties of the "customer" field in the template, but it's not working. Keep getting an error that I'm entering wrong kind of data in field. I need each of the extra fields (2nd customer, realtor, attorney, loan officer) to act like the customer field, but not simply duplicate what I've entered in customer (that was the result of one of my early glitched). I want to be able to click the field, and if its a new contact, offer a data entry "contacts" form to complete. It seems like such a basic thing I'm trying to do, but very frustrated I can't figure it out intuitively.
Again, I'm sure this is a bit basic for the forum, but thanks in advance for any help, or referral to other resources to figure this out. Thanks! William
