I need to be able to create forms and form fields using vba.
I need to be able to especially create form fields and place them on the form, where ever I choose.

Any ideas out there?

What about being able to look through a table and then create controls for each table field according to their field type? I'm Your Huckleberry!

Hi

To do that you iterate through the tabledefs collection, and using the previous two commands I gave you you crete your form, then your controls, using information from the tabledef.

I leave you to look it up in help
