MS Access Forum / New Users / July 2006Why can't I just copy a form and edit the fields?
Hi, This drives me crazy. I have a new table and I like the form already done for the other table, so I copy the form and rename it to match the tabel and then go to design view and even though I try to delink the form from the old table, Access 07 just blitely matches all changes back to the original form so if I get the new form right, I have the old form wrong. What do I do? :) >Hi, > [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > >:) Probably left the "Name Autocorrect" feature turned on. Tools... Options... General. Uncheck "Track Name Autocorrect Information". It's still buggy, even in 2007. John W. Vinson[MVP] That didn't seem to work. Thanks though. >>Hi, >> [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > > John W. Vinson[MVP] Just a question from someone who has not tried Access 2007. Is that form, a single form which is itself linked to a table/query? Or is it an unbound form, with a subform on it linked to the table/query?

Sounds like something I will want to avoid. Wish you luck - I wish it could be a solution. Ron Thanks Ron. I actually have most of it working now. Just don't ask me how I did it. > Well, there goes that idea. > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > > Ron I always get worried about those types of solutions. If it fixed itself on some mysterious condition? How easily will it UN-Fix itself on some equally mysterious codition? Not that I can do a whole lot about either of the mysterious conditions. Ron |
