hi... ive been told that by directly using SQL statements, i can essentially overlook the relationships defined in an MS Access 2002 db.. firstly is this true / feasible / possible?

if yes, then if someone could help me with this pretty basic prob it would be much appreciated.

how would i go about assigning SQL statements to controls i have in a MS Access form? i think im looking for INSERT statements, but if someone could point me in the right direction as how to exactly use such procedures? i have nothing more complicated yet, just the syntax to write data from control fields in a form, into tables that have already been created (tables are also MS Access)

thanks

apologies - i wasnt sure if this post belonged in the Access or SQL Syntax forums..

if somebody could help me out with this, heres what ive found and where im confused :

INSERT INTO tblShipping (ShippingEx)
VALUES

tblShipping is one table. The ShippingEx is a column (fields) in the table. Now, i dont want to manually insert values - i want to bind this SQL statement to a form control that takes the details entered by the user and inserts that.

can someone help me out with how to complete this statement pls? how do i essentially say

"INSERT INTO tblShipping (ShippingEx)
VALUES (as entered by the user in the form)" ?

should i first run a query, then edit it in SQL view?

thanks

I am not sure, about these since i worked on MS-Acess form around 3 years back.. but in every controls as property called data, where you can specify the default value or control value.. and it automatically links with the table field..

you can do some R & D with that .. hope its work for you..

If Debugging is the process of removing Bugs then i Guess programming should be process of Adding them.
