Don't get hung up too quick on the layout and appearance of your Form! Forms
are *very much secondary*; you need to be sure you have your tables and
relationships set up correctly to begin with.
It's very easy to have a form with a Listbox or Combo Box (a dropdown box)
listing all the clients with a Subform for that client's data.
