It has been a while since I have done a database and forgot how to set up
each subform to open when I click on a tab. Or maybe I use a command button.
Can anyone help me.
 
Hi,

You have several choices. I find that using a "tab control" is easiest if
you have many subforms, but if you want to add a command button, just drag
and drop one onto your form from the toolbox. When you do that, a wizard
should pop up asking what you would like it to do.

If you want to go the tab control route, then use the toolbox in the form's
design view mode, click and drag a tab control onto your form. Next, right
click on one of the tabs to add / drop tabs and rename them as you desire.
Next, use the toolbox to drop a subform onto the tab of your choice. When
you drop a subform anywhere, a wizard will pop up.
