I am trying to add a command button to my form. When I use the wizard I get an Invalid Use of Null error. Has anyone encountered this? I am using Access 2003. I have searched this forum and microsoft, but found no answers. Thank you.
 
What is the command button trying to do?

Open an object, navigate through records..........

A little more info please.
 
As soon as I click on my form to place the command button, I get the error. If I click ok on the error, it will bring up the wizard, but all the choices are missing and I get the error again. So I can't even get to the part where I try to assign an action.
 
How are ya ITProg . . .

Sounds like corruption!

Open a new form (for testing only) and try the command button again . . . Do you get the same thing?
