Document, document, and document.

Make notes about the things that seem incredibly difficult . . . and next time it should come much easier.

I noticed I have a number of 'how to' files - in Visio. Unfortunately, I no longer have access to a machine with Visio on it. (A lot of math 'how to' notes in Visio I had I converted to pdf files before retiring.)

Re: “Are you sure you shouldn't be using something like ' form2.TextBox1.Text=form1.TextBox1.Text '
to get the data out of the field of your data input form?”Naw. I wasn't trying to compare one form's field to a different form's field. I was trying to get an alert as I enter a book into a form to the effect that the title is already present in the table the form saves to. If it's in there twice, I wanted to see "2". If three times, "3". Etc. And if it's not already in the table, I didn't want any alert at all.

Seemingly so easy, but wow was it hard. The problem is that I'm inexperienced and this was the very first piece of code I've written. Next time I try to add some VB to the database, I'll have something that works to examine. That'll help.Re: “Good times.”Not!
