[AccessD] VBA Unbound data entry / update form

...I always forgive JC ...its habit forming, it is ...been doing it for more 
than a decade now ...still forgiving him for the documentation that came 
with that sample jit file I bought from him way back when he was still 
playing expatriate in old Mexico ...obtuse it was :)

...great sample though ...learned a lot I did ...and I forgive him for that 
as well :)
