prevent maximize
My custom dialog opens from a toolbar button. The dialog has a twin
(same-sized) dialog that acts like Tab 2, meaning when the user clicks the
tab the other custom dialog opens on top of the other, and back again to Tab
1, so I can't set the PopUp or Modal property to Yes. I want the user to be
able to toggle back and forth.
How can I prevent the these smaller forms opening in max mode ...

Update 3 tables w/ 1 Form
I'm new to Access, and am figuring my way around it. I've tried to update
multiple tables with one form, but haven't been able to do it. I've split
the tables in accordance with Normalization Forms, at least to the best of my
understanding. So, is there a way that more than one table can be updated and
accessed by a single form?...
