    Displaying data

    Hello,

    Is it possible to have a subfrom in a main table that displays all data that has been entered into the table, when you double click on a particular row a form pops up and displays the data in a pre-determined structure.

    So I guess my main question is whether it was possible to have a form pop up when you click on a row in either a table or a query.

    Thanks

    You can't do it from a table or a query. You can do it from a form though.

      So you can do it from a form. Can you point me in the right direction or give me a overview of how to do it?

      Thanks

        Well, in the Double-Click event of your choice you just have it open a form with the appropriate filter criteria.

          Hello,

          I don't quite understand how to go about achieving this. I can get the form I want to popup on the double click event but I don't know how then to assign the data from that row of the form into the popup form. Any help is appreciated.

          thanks

            You wouldn't be assigning any data. You'd use the Filter parameter of DoCmd.OpenForm to filter the records using a unique identifier.
