Inserting Data in Microsoft Access

Inserting Data in Microsoft Access

Inserting Data in Microsoft Access

(OP)
Hello All,
I am making an Access database, where info will be inputed via forms.  I want one table,table1, to have only 2 fields, a key field and a date field.

On a seperate form, I am able to pull up a specific record.  When I click a certain button, or hit enter on the date field in that form, I want to automatically add to table1 a record with that specific key # and date.  Table1 will allow for duplicate key #s, so I can add several dates for each key #.

How do i go about doing this?

For a experienced user of ACCESS (not necesary a programer), requiere only a little procedure written in visual basic and triggered by any action and/or button

RE: Inserting Data in Microsoft Access

You will probably want ot get a book on ACCESS.  When you create tables, forms, etc., you can create relationships that allow 1 form to use data across many other forms. Within these relationships, you can set duplication abilities, date fields, etc.  Pretty nice actually.  Just takes a little time to set it up.
