oscarbum Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Giving that this is my third database I'm creating for a business, it is REALLY embarassing that I CANNOT figure out why these two databases are not sharing data. The relationship is built in both databases, the related fields are in place. Everything is indexed that needs to be and yet, I'm looking at layouts with blank fields. I know I've missed something simple and I'm going to hide all sharp objects when I read the response. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanley Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Oscar: It's tough to say without more detail. The first thing to check is that your match fields actually match. In other words, if your relationship is based on the field Serial_Number in Database_A matching with the field Parent_Record in Database_B, do those fields actually contain the same data? Are they the same type (i.e., number, text, date, etc.)? -Stanley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oscarbum Posted December 8, 2005 Author Share Posted December 8, 2005 No. It was dumber than that. But it's fixed. Of course, I find the problem about 30 seconds after the post and laboring for 2 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrentHedden Posted December 9, 2005 Share Posted December 9, 2005 I wish I had a count of how many of my own postings I figured out soon after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
