Is there any way to create a form with a grid so that the user can enter in data in a table format? I would rather have them add data on a form, but they want to be able to enter it in a grid-like table format. Any ideas? Thanks.
 
You can place a query in datasheet format onto a form. In fact you can place as many as you like. It's a good way of collecting lots of information on one page without resorting to programming. I havew a form with nothing but datasheet grids and a heading.
 
How do I add a datasheet to a form? I don't see it in the tool box. If I remember correctly from visual basic, you might have to make that object available somewhere.
 
ahah! I went through the form creation wizard and it looks like they just set it up with a detail section and set the form to view as a "datasheet." thanks for your help!
