Does anybody know what the max number of controls i can put on a form is?
 
I could be wrong but I think its limited to the number of controls you can fit on your screen -- and the amount of memory your computer needs to process the required data...

Bear in mind that lots of controls, especially subforms and combo boxes/list boxes, = slow "The Key, The Whole Key, and Nothing But The Key, So Help Me Codd!"
