I am creating a form for customer database, I dunno how to add an item like,
"Speak Basic English: Yes/No" <-this is one of the data that I would like to
add.
Thanks!

Open the form in design mode.

Display the Toolbar.

Select the type of control you wish to use (?perhaps a checkbox?) by
clicking on it.

Click on the form approximately where you want the control.

Modify the label that accompanies the control.

You don't say if this is an existing db. If it is, assuming you want to
store this bit of info with the rest of the customer info, you will first
have to add a field in your table. You can set the data type to Yes/No or an
integer. I prefer an integer (Yes=-1 and No=0.) Then follow Jeff's
instructions for adding the field to the form. You will need to set the
control source to the new field.

I'm guessing the above "toolbar" should be "toolbox". Just close enough to
maybe be confusing.
