Set Default text in a textbox to whats in the prev
I have a contiuous form that works on a table. Basically its used to fill the table. I want to make it so that when a new record is made in the table the default text in it is what was in the previous record. Not sure if it is possible but I hope it is. This would save my people who enter data a hell of a lot of time when things are reptetive.
In the textbox's recordsource type:
=DLookUp("[Field]","Table","[ID]=Forms![Form1]![ID]-1")
where Field is the field where the value is stored, Table is the table name, ID is your PK field, and Form1 is your form name.
