When a table is created with a primary key (not null).
If you design forms, the form does not allow you to enter data in any other item box until you enter data in the primary key box.
Is there any way of going around this?
For instance, I have a form with two items.
post_id and post_descr.
Post_id is a primary key.
I would like to search for data using either post_id or post_descr or both.
Right, my cursor will not leave the post_id box until I enter data into the box.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
patjeff
 
Try to set Required property of your PK item to No.
