Editing Records in Multi-Table Forms in Microsoft Access (Forms Based on Multiple Table Queries)

In this video, we're going to discuss the best way to edit data in a form that is based on fields from multiple tables.

Lina from St. Petersburg, Florida (a Platinum Member) asks: I've got a form based on a query with 4 different tables in it. It seems like whenever I make changes to one of the fields, strange things happen. Sometimes I can't add a new record. Sometimes I get an error message. Sometimes I think I'm editing one field and I end up changing 3 other things. What am I doing wrong?

Silver Members and up get access to an Extended Cut of this video. Members will see how to safely allow the user to edit fields in a form based on multiple tables by warning the user and asking if they're sure. We'll also see how to quickly open up another form to edit related data.
