1. The default for a form is to have navigation buttons. If you don't want
them or want to create your own, you have to set the form's navigationbuttons
property to No. If you do want to create your own, be sure you have wizards
turned on and use the wizard to create them.

2. You can also do this with a wizard. The question is whether you want a
Bound Object Frame or an Unbound Object Frame. The difference is a Bound
Object Frame refers to images in the database and an Unbound Object Frame
referes to images outside the database.

3. I am not sure this is what you want, but have a loo:

1.) Make sure the Control Wizard is in (the button on the Forms toolbar
that has a magic wand on it. Then when you pull a button control, it
will step you through the process.
2.) Copy the phot to the clip board, select the field in the table that
you want to place the photo, and paste it. You wil not see the photo.
It can be viewed in a form or report.
3.) Create a picture (jpeg, bmp, etc) of the two colors you want.
Select the Properties of the forma and then select the Picture build
(...) and find the picture wher you stored it. Make sure you select
Stretch for the Picture size mode.
Hope this helps,
Bob
