hi both, thanks indeed for your suggestions.
j_ferguson: your workaround could indeed be implemented, but i am very much keen to find a more simplified solution.
andrew: I have already used your suggestion in a different case. The disadvantage is that you end up seeing only one field without knowing what’s inside of other fields which provide more relevant information to make the selection. Also, the possibility of modifying the original table through ‘access’ button is gone.
I would like to modify KeyControl or create a different control my own to do following:
Modifying the whereField or restrictions to be an object #((‘sourcefield1′,’=’,currenctfield1),(‘sourcefield2′,’>’,currenctfield2),…). sourcefield is passed in as field name of the source table which will be filtered on and currentfield is passed as filter value from current table. This way, the rename command in the query could also be avoided.
I also would like to deactivate key checks because i don’t see them too necessary here, except providing sorting and record identification which is not my concern in most of the cases.
Is that possible?
thanks
