qryXmplContracts Results In An Error In The Many-To-One Form On pages 538-541, under the section titled Designing a Many-to-One Form, if you use the qryXmplContracts sample query discussed on pages 537-538, the form will contain fields that display an error, and your computer screen will not match Figure 15-4 on page 540. If you have a form based on a query, and the query contains multiple fields with the same name (such as PostalCode from Table1 and PostalCode from Table2), the control(s) on the form that are bound to that field name will be blank or may display the "#Name?" error. Because the same field name appears multiple times in the qryXmplContracts query, Microsoft Access does not know which field to link to the control(s). Therefore, instead of making an assumption about which field to bind to, it leaves the control(s) linked to duplicate field names blank or displays the "#Name?" error in the control. To correct this behavior, rename the fields in the query so that there are no duplicates. |
