    <p>So I have four tables and they are linked by primary and foreign keys. I have a form that is used to enter information and I have set my primary keys column set to autofill in Access database. How can I take those values from the autofill column and enter it in the other table that I want. This is my Insert code..</p> <pre><code> sqlString = "INSERT INTO [Members] ([MemberName], [Child], [Adult], [PaymentMethod]) VALUES ('" + MemberName + "','" + Child + "','" + Adult + "','" + PaymentMethod + "')" cmd = New OleDbCommand(sqlString, myConn) cmd.ExecuteNonQuery() </code></pre> <p>That is what I use to input the info from my form and it works. Now there is another column that nothing is being entered in because it is the foreign key column and my primary key column in the other table is set to autofill with numbers. How can I fill my foreign key column to match my primary key column in the other table? I hope I explained this well, thanks for the help. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
