How do I create a continuous form/ sub-form? "mugziegumz via AccessMonster.com" <u47747[ at ]uwe> 11/24/2008 5:09:52 PM The templates use a built in function to enable clicking on a link in a form that looks like a datasheet to open another form....I want to create a form like the templates use...but a more simple one. In my previous post I was told to create a continuous form/sub form that looks like a datasheet to open another form. How do I do this? What is the step by step process? I am brand new with Access. -- Message posted via AccessMonster.com http://www.accessmonster.com/Uwe/Forums.aspx/access-formscoding/200811/1

Select the table or query that you want to use as a recordsource, then invoke the form wizard, and select either datasheet or continuous (tabular) form. Let is make your form and tweak it in design view, if necessary. Now use the wizard to add your form as a subform in the design view of the main form. -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com "mugziegumz via AccessMonster.com" <u47747[ at ]uwe> wrote in message news:8dad1ae06a433[ at ]uwe...
