Form and Subform Design,
Part 1:
Create the Form
Key
Concept: Use a Combo Box Control to look
up data in one Table and add it to another Table.
Plan: The Form will enable Users to search for
Movies by Rating. This Form will have a new Table, tblMovieSearch,
as the Record Source.
What Are
the Steps?
Create a
new Table for the Movie Search Form.
Create a
new Form based on tblMovieSearch.
Create a
new Table for the Rating data.
Use
tblRating as the Control Source for a Combo Box on the MovieSearch
Form.
What Are
the Issues? This Form should be in Single
Form View.
Why Use
This Method? A Combo Box Control is an
effective way to look up the data in a Table. When a User selects a
value from a Table it is accurate and spelled right.
