Re: [MSAccessProfessionals] Access 2006 Simple question

Hi Carol

 

What that plus sign indicates is a sub data sheet. I usually avoid them like the plague but MS thought some people would find them useful

 

Check out the info at https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/add-a-subdatasheet-900d1d30-5ea2-4e47-80a7-ddcb87a53d14

Subject: [MSAccessProfessionals] Access 2006 Simple question

 

Hi.

 

Seems the only time I ask a question is when I have a senior moment.   I wrote a basic query years ago.. When I get my results, I somehow connected the result records back to the main database. They can be displayed by clicking on the "+" that shows up to the left of the record.  How did I do that? I tried creating a new query but can not get it.  The original one has the query "related" to the main database by the "Itemnbr ".

 

The main database (stripped down version) contains: itemnbr, description, cost, sell, purchasedate, selldate.  Nothing fancy.  The query table only contains: itemnbr, selldate.  When I run the query I can click on the result record by using the "+" to recall more details about the item if needed.

 

Simple!!   Not anymore…… HELP!

 

I have another senior moment issue, but can wait on than one….I'll try figuring it out for a bit longer before I give up.

 

Thank you.
