I have several forms that I use to enter information. I just add tables and point these forms to the table I need to add to. How can I make an unbound control display the reccord source so I won't make the mistake of entering info into the wrong table? Or maybe, even better, there's a way to get a msgbx to assign to the right recordsource from user imput before the form is open? Hnm.

I'm sure this is very easy, but I can't figure it out. I'm all rusty in Access right now.

Thanks for your help! Holy tek-tips batman!:-0
 
My thinking is that the recordsource for one particular form is never going to change. It's in the properties. Since it isn't going to change, I would just hard code it on the form.
