DB Code: Please help!

[joey o.]

HI,
I'm new at databases and need some help. Can anyone share some code that would allow me to see 1 record from each of two fields of a table in two textboxes respectively, and then in two more textboxes type new info to be entered into another table(might be empty) where a common ID number must be created in it the same as the existing info in the first two textboxes.
I'd prefer doing this without the datacontrol. Any DAO or ADO help will keep me from being DOA at a meeting tomorrow.
I'm in your debt already,hopefully someday I can repay you all. Just make a list.
Thanks Again

Ok try this sort of thing, at the top of your code window where you make declares. (You must first do a reference to MS Data vers 35/3

Private db as Database
Private rs1 as recordset
Private rs2 as recordset

In the form load

Set db = dbengine.opendatabase(Path and name of base)
set rs1 = db.openrecordset(Table1,dbopendynaset)
Set rs2 = sb.openrecordset(Table2,dbopendynaset)

Ok after you have located the record you want

txtbox1 = rs1!Name1
txtbox2 = rs1!Name2

Type in your info in txtbox3 and txtbox4\

then to load rs2 something like

rs2.findfirst("Key = '" & rs1!Key & "'")
if rs2.nomatch then
rs2.addnew
rs2!Key = rs1!Key
else
rs2.edit
end if

rs2!Whatever = txtbox3
rs2!Whatever = txtbox4
rs2.update

Hope this helps, abit confusing l know don't have vb in front of me on this pc. :0
