I want to be able to add a text box everything I press the Add Task button.

Something like this:

___________
| ADD TASK |

then a text box becomes visible

________________________

|________________________|

and repeat up to six times

So far all I have been able to do is to get one text box to show

can any one help plz.

Whoa! This sounds like an unnormalized table. You should
probably have a separate table for the task data and using a
continuous (or datasheet) subform to display/enter the task
data (no command button needed).

If you are absolutely sure you only need a maximum of 6 text boxes then you
can have fields but can you be sure?

Putting "like" information into separate fields can cause havoc when
creating queries and analysing information.
