inputting data

[tjerhoff]

Hello,

I am pretty new to Access and have a question.

I am setting up a database that will track production info. All I want to do is have a FORM that will allow me to input several data fields then click on a button that stores that data in an existing table.

I want it to open an existing table, create a new record, let me input the data, then close the table when I'm finished creating the new record.

Do I need to create a macro or how is this normally done in access?

Create your table(s) then create a form and 'BIND' it to the table then create 'text' controls and 'bind' those controls to the fields in your table.

cheers,
