I feel a little stupid with this one, but I have tried just about everything I know (which isn't much), and I cannot get this to work the way I want it to. I have a form:
1348-1 which is based on a query: Q-1348-1. The query is getting information from three different tables: DCU Log, ICRL-1, and ICRL-2. Then I have a report: 1348-1, which is basically the print version of the form, but is run from a different query: Q-1348-1print. Q-1348-1print is the same as Q-1348-1 except that it has three added fields defining the format for a barcode on the report. What I want is for users to be able to input data onto the form and after inputting however many records, be able to print the records that they choose. For example: Add 15 records, but only print 10 of them; and if need be, go back later and select old records to print at a later date. I have tried putting a check box on the form and queries, but it is always an "not updateable field". Any idea what is wrong with this? I know it is something simple, but can't figure it out? Maybe there is an altogether easy way of doing this. Any ideas?
Thanx
