I have a client database with a parent form and a tab control on the
child form for all my child tables, such as Enquiry, Application,
Journal, etc. I am trying to design a "dashboard" panel in the top
left corner with a text box containing a single letter for each tab, E
A J. I have conditional formatting for each text box that changes the
single letter to red if there is the client parent key is in the child
table, using the following code:
DLookUp("[nEnquiryKey]","Enquiry" ,"[nClientKey] = [Forms]![Main
Form]![nClientKey]") Is Not Null
The problem I am having is that the form is stalling on load-up and
loads only part way, ie. White boxes without text. Can anyone suggest
some faster code for accomplishing this? I currently have 5 letters on
my dashboard and would like to add more tabs.
Thanks for your help.
