Creating new forms

B

Is it better to create forms from queries, or directly from the raw tables?
Any advice I would greatly appreciate.

I always use queries, so that I can control the sort order. The downside of
doing so, of course, is that you have to modify your queries if you add new
fields to the table.

Hi,
I do both to start the form with the wizards - but with queries I will
usally go into the "Record Source" and just copy the SQL there so I save
cluttering up the Queries tab.
