OK...sorry for the confusion, Bill, but that error is happening because
the NOTES field doesn't have anything entered and...like I said...I
didn't bother with any debugging in the quick demo and set up the form
as a sample where you'd fill out ALL fields to see how it worked. But
yes, I guess the notes should have also been turned off for...If
(whateverField) = "" then (don't mess up<g>). 

Thanks for catching this. I'll update the demo and upload a revised
version in the next couple days. 

In the meantime...when you get that error message, you should also get
an option button on the error message to DEBUG. If you click that
button, it will open the VBE and highlight the offending line of code.
When it does, you will be able to better see the problem. In this case,
it's the fact that the Notes field wasn't set to ignore if nothing was
in the field and the DB isn't set to accept a Null value. So, until I
upload a revised version, you'll either need to enter something into the
Notes field or comment out that line of code. At least that's the only
problem I see at this point with a quick run through it.

Hope this helps...
