Hi folks,

I have been reading through a lot of the questions in the forum, and have been quite happy about the vast amount of information.

But there is a problem that I cannot find the answer to. I think it might be pretty trivial.

I have a form where the user enters information that he/she collects after testing some parts that we manufacture. Each part has a specific part number and 6 points are collected per part (from different locations on the part itself).

Since most of the part related information is the same, the user fills in a form like:

User name:
Date: 
Part number: XXXXX

Quality data:

Point 1:  10.11 (the number is just the result of the measurement test)
Point 2:  11.00
Point 3: 12.12
.....

All this data goes to an access table.

The PROBLEM:

If I add a repeating section for all the data in the form, the username window appears 6 times; the part number window appears 6 times and the quality data window is 6 times. I dont want the user to even see the username, date window more than once. He.she should only see the quality data fields 6 times for entering the right data.

Now if I use the Username, date, part number fields as non-repeating, then in the access table, only the first lines has the user name info. The other username spaces are blank.

Like:

Username      Date                   Part Number      Measure location       Measurement
XXX                 xx/xx/xxxx         ABCD                     Point 1                     10.11
                                                                              Point 2                     11.00
                                                                              Point 3                     12.12

What I want to have is

Username      Date                   Part Number      Measure location       Measurement
XXX                 xx/xx/xxxx         ABCD                     Point 1                     10.11
XXX                 xx/xx/xxxx         ABCD                     Point 2                     11.00
XXX                 xx/xx/xxxx         ABCD                     Point 3                     12.12

Can somebody tell me what I am doing wrong, and how I can get a form where the user is not repeating information, while the access table appears in the correct form?
