DAO/ADO recordset as form recordsource??
hi reid
who told you not to link the tables into the frontend? if not linked you
will have to use passthrough queries which will result in read only
datasets.
link them as you would with a access backend and make sure on each table
a unique or primary key is defined. then it works just like you are used
to.
regards
henry
