Re using the main window

I will like to know how to make call a form and reuse the window. I am
looking to eliminate window clutter.
For example a user click a button that calls a form to be displayed, I will
like to use the same window to display the new form.
Maybe this is not how is done in access. ???
I am a UNIX Xwindows developer.

Thanks

If you place the form as a subform on another form, you can use code to
change the SourceObject property of the subform. For example...
Me.NameOfSubformControl.SourceObject = "NameOfFormToUse"
