Error message while adding new record

Hi, folks!

I'm receiving the following error message
"Run time error '3246' - this action was cancelled by an associated object"
when clicking a button which runs the line MyDataControl.Recordset.Addnew

What can be the problem?

Thanks in advance for any help,
Roselene

I believe you probably got error 3426 and not 3246, but in any case do a search on "action was cancelled" and you will come up with a dozen or so other posts about this error.

you have to have an edit to open up the database first for editing before you add new; try this

MyDataControl.Recordset.edit
MyDataControl.Recordset.Addnew
MyDataControl.refresh
