    Thanks Duane, I actually have your example working with my code and it suits my needs. I don't fully understand the fine details or semantics of all the operations but I understand much more than I did last night. Your help was very useful. Too bad this thread is now so mis-named but...

    Nevermind on the Northwind database. I just found reference to it on the microsoft site: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;209576 I have Access 2000 but Office 2003 and somethings aren't installed in Access, including the sample Northwind db. This task has become more...

    Thanks Duane, That helped. I had already found the forms reference for the current data but your reference helped me find the "after update" event procedure: Private Sub Track_ID_AfterUpdate() Me!ConfigID = Null Me!ConfigID.Requery End Sub However, I had to set the "Required"...

    Please forgive me if this question is misplaced or malformed but this is my first foray into MS Access and SQL and I haven't done anything with relational databases since about 1985. OK, with that caveat out of the way, please allow me to ask my question: I am working on a SQL query for a Row...
