I personally disagree about not using frm in the name of the form. I find
it helps me identify my objects faster and easier. I do not like using the
underscore though. I will use frmMyFormName or rptMyReportName, etc. in
order to quickly identify what I am working with.

>> Hi,
>>
>> I have a bit of a problem, I have a form called frm_Search and on this
