Add new records ind a locked form with locked subforms!

Can anyone please help me with the following:

I have a Form with multiplies of subforms witch are related by relations.
It is possible for the user to enter the form and change a specific record
by selecting the specific form from a kombolist witch refers to the list of
ID’s from my main table.
The Form is for good reasons locked so that the user not by mistake, can add
new records when he is changing in an existent record, just by scrolling down.

I now want to be able to add new records to the database by typing in a new
ID, but here comes the problem.
I tried by SQL to “insert into†my main table and by that it should update
my other related tables, but it doesn’t.
I also tried manually to enter a record in my main table, but it doesn’t add
the same entered ID to my other tables. This results in my subforms to be
“invisible†or blank when I enter my mainform with the new entered ID.
Is there a SQL-code that inserts a value from a txt-box in many tables at
one time, so that access don’t give me an error due to my relations of tables
or can I delete my relations and hardcode an insert-statement to all of my
tables at ones?

Best regards Tobias
 
You don't need to lock your form to prevent adding new records. Just set the
AllowAdditions property for the form to No and you won't get that new record
line at the bottom of your form. When you want to add a new record, use the
following code in some event:
Me.AllowAdditions = True
