form question

[geepeetee]

Hi

I am creating a database for a piece of coursework. I am using a main menu
with buttons to navigate the system. I have a sub table on the main page
with a search button that allows me to highlight an entry and bring up the
form for that customers details. I have turned off the navigation buttons
to make it look neater.

I want to put a buttton that brings up a blank form to add a new member but
cant seem to find how. If this is not possible i can always turn the
navigation buttons back on and select a new form.

thanks

Gary

Hi Gary,

There is a command button wizard that will write the appropriate VBA code
for you. In form design view, click on View > Toolbox (if it is not already
displayed). Make sure that the wizards are activated. The icon with the wand
should look depressed.

Then add a new command button to your form. Select Record Operations in the
Categories listing, and Add New Record in the Actions listing.
