FORM HELP

B

Belle

I am having problems with a form that i have designed. The first problem is
that i have created the form with TABS so that i can have lots more
information on the one database without overcrowding the form( the
information comes from omore that one table) but i am having difficulties in
that the command buttons except close form wont work. If i try to add a new
record it states that "i am unable to go to that record" and when i tryto
save or delete it comes up with the error "The command or location isnt
available". HOW DO I FIX IT?

I also cant get tab order to work, it wont let me select in order to change
the order that the tab goes to on the form.

your form can only have one record source, I would assume the other
record sources are sub forms related to the main record source?

Your errors appear to have something to do with the record source.

if you are trying to change the order of your tabs you can
