Hi, I have several databases that are linked to each other.
I have one main database with patient and another database with encounters.
One patient have several encounters. Databases are linked by medical record
number.
I attempted to create a form that would combine both tables. The form is
based on Main Table and them I have tabulated subforms for encounter. In one
tab I have tabulated view of encounter subform (for some reason it was
defolt), so I can see all encounters for that paticular patients.Below it I
inserted the same form, but in justified view for easy data entry.

Now the question. I want to be able to click on encounter is tabulated view
and bring it in my justified view for editing of this record . For some
reason this does not work. Any suggestion

I have a jpg with my form but do not see an option in this forum to attach
image or file.
Thank you for the help.
 
It looks like I have found an answer to my question

"Prevent a form from showing existing records

Open the form in Design view (Design view: A window that shows the design of
these database objects: tables, queries, forms, reports, macros, and data
access pages. In Design view, you can create new database objects and modify
the design of existing ones.).
Double-click the form selector (form selector: The box where the rulers
meet, in the upper-left corner of a form in Design view. Use the box to
perform form-level operations, such as selecting the form.) to open the
form's property sheet.
Do one of the following:
If you don't want the form to display existing records, set the DataEntry
property to Yes.

If you want the form to open with all records showing, set the DataEntry
property to No."
Sounds counterintuitive, that is why I had problems.
