Ok I just have one more question about this project... when I create a form using "New from Data Connection" I keep getting an error saying it cannot read some of my tables in Access or that they are unconnected. These are the tables that I use for my pull down menus that just contain a list. Will I need to enter these in manually? -- Wendy Taylor
