my boss asked me to organise my new database with alphabetical index buttons
at the top of forms so that he can quickly go to names beginning with a
particular letter... I've been searching high and low but can't find any
instructions anywhere on how to do this, is this possible?

Click to expand...

Your title says "tabs" and your body says "buttons". For buttons...

Me.Filter = "[NameField] Like 'A*'"
Me.FilterOn = True

(repeat for each button).
 
I guess I mean like you have in the 'contacts' thingy in Outlook - I guess
they are buttons? anyways, thanks for your help and answer, I'll start from
here and see

thanks Rick
