My database is on a PC with a single user. The project that I am working on has only one database.
I have a combobox (cbo) on FormOne that is filled from a table that is created by a search. When I select an item from the cbo, it goes to the cbo_AfterUpdate() and asks if I want to add it to a diary.
If I click yes, FormOne opens FormTwo passing the information in the cbo selection using the OpenArgs property. FormTwo closes FormOne. After FormTwo has completed its tasks it re-opens FormOne and closes itself. This is NOT the problem.
This is the problem. If I click no, it exits the procedure. However, when I run the Search routine again, I get a 3211 error Table in use . The only way I have found to get around this error is to close FormOne then open FormThree which has only one purpose. It asks if I want to re-open FormOne. This closing and reopening allows me to do another search from FormOne .
Isnt there another way to get around this error??
BTW, please dont tell me to create my data for the cbo using a Callback function. There is very little in the Help file but I have books for Access 97, Access 2000 and The Access Cookbook which basically have the same explanations with different examples. I worked for hours trying to understand that and got so confused that I watched Thursday night football instead.
