Did you add a Photo control to the forms as I suggested? Then you could see whether the file path is being inserted correctly. It may be updating, but the Image control can't find the file.

John,

The sequence as you describe is correct. And the note record is being saved correctly. Could you take a minute and review the add code and see why the path is not being written to the table. Everything else appears to be working correctly except for that.

OK, I can see the pictures, but I still don't understand the sequence. Does clicking New Test on frmUnitDetails open frmMTTDetails? And does clicking New Note on the Photos/Notes tab of frmMTTDetails open frmMTTNoteDetails? Does clicking the pencil icon next to a record on the Photos/Notes tables of frmMTTDetails also open frmMTTNoteDetals but for the current record?

You say that the picture path isn't getting saved after you click Add Picture and select a file. Is the Note itself saved? If not, then there's a problem providing the linking info between frmMTTDetails and frmMTTNoteDetails. If the Note does get saved, you somehow must not be correctly updating the underlying text column that points to the file. You could temporarily add that text column (Photo?) to both the Photo/Notes tab of frmMTTDetails and frmMTTNoteDetails to actually see the text you think you're saving. That might help you figure it out. Perhaps truncating the file path if the photo is the path of the current database isn't working as you expect. You might need to store the entire path to be sure you get the photo loaded.

OK. I assume your "main" form is editing tblMethTestTracking and frmMTTNoteDetails is editing the other table. You also mentioned a subform - what is that editing? If both the subform and frmMTTNoteDetails are editing tblMethTestTrackingNotes, then you have to be careful to make sure the record is saved in the subform before you call frmMTTNoteDetails AND filter on both the MTTID and the MTTNoteID to ensure you're editing the same record. If MTTNoteID is the PKey of tblMethTestTrackingNotes, then that's what you should be filtering on, not MTTID.

John,

OK I did that. The adds and edit work for everything but the photo. The photo adds correctly to the note but does not retain it it for the editing. I loke into my note table and I discovered its not saving the path to the photo field in the notes table.

Actually, it would be better if you were to force the save of any new record on the calling form *before* loading the form to add a photo. If you do that, the filter on the form (you need to add one in cmdNewNote_Click) should do the trick. You'll be "adding" a photo to an existing record.

Sorry. The load statement is there:

Private Sub Form_Load()
If Me.NewRecord Then
Me.MTTID = Me.OpenArgs

End If
End Sub

It is passing the MTTID value to the new record. I can add and edit the record. It has all the information except it doesn't retain the photo.

I don unertand what you are saying about the NewNote condition I will move that button out to the Details tab. But even when I edit the record that exists, the photo is there and I have to go back and add it each time.

You don't show the Form_Open code that should be grabbing Me.OpenArgs and setting MTTID. Also, if the user clicks cmdNewNote *before* a new record in the subform is saved, the record won't be there yet to edit and add the photo.

John,

The record source is tblMethTestTracking. Yes I believe I am. I should have specified. frmMTTDetails contains a subform called sfrmMethTestTrackingNoteList which are link together by MTTID. The user then click the cmdEdit button (code below) the specific record they want to open:

Private Sub cmdEdit_Click()
ViewMTTNote
End Sub

Private Sub ViewMTTNote()

     Dim stDocName As String
    Dim stLinkCriteria As String
    stDocName = "frmMTTNoteDetails"
    stLinkCriteria = "[MTTNoteID]=" & Me![MTTNoteID]
    DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
    Forms.frmMTTNoteDetails.AllowAdditions = False

End Sub

When a new note is created, the MTTID is passed to the frmMTTNoteDetails via a OpenArg:

What is the Record Source of frmMTTDetails, and are you synchronizing that form to position on the record you selected with Edit on the other form?

Now my issue It Adds the photo when I click the AddPhoto button but when I save and close the detail form and then once again in the List form I click the edit button and it is retaining everything but the image. I am not sure where I went bad....
