question about opening a new window form to enter data

F

Fernando Ortiz

I'm trying to build an application that of course uses data, the main
application will just display the data/info, but it will have a button to
add more records to the data file. I tried to create another form that has
all the fields to enter new data. My question is, what code do I use to make
that form open so I can enter new data to the database? I'm still new to
programming. In Visual Basic of course.

Thanks in advanced

You have a Form, right? So you wade through the Form Members until you find
something that looks like it will do what you want. In a case like this you
likely want a Method. Unfortunately there are sometimes A LOT of Methods.
And they are not always called what you might expect. The good news is that
you will discover so many interesting things you can do with the various
Methods (and Properties and Events). There are no Methods for a Form named
Open-something, but you might be interested in Form Methods named
Show-something.

Good Luck, Bob
