Why don't any command buttons work in just one database I designe

kI've just created a database and wanted to have my own command buttons for
things like FIND, DELETE, NEW. I can create these OK using the wizard and
they work great in other databses I've tried but whenever I do the same in
this major database I've created none of the buttons work. I really am at a
loss.
 
Does the form have a Record Source? Did you copy them from another Form? What
happens when you try to use them? Yours - Dika
 
Hi Kernow Girl

In a nutshell - yes. In all cases I created forms using the wizard based on
tables I'd already created. Then I used Tools wizard to create command
buttons for FIND, NEW and DELETE. When I click them nothing happens. I did
the same for another database someone else had created and the buttons did
just as expected so I'm assuming there's something different about the
database I've vcreated?

Click to expand...

If the button does nothing then it may be that the code is nnot associated
with an event. Go to the properties box and make sure you have "Event
Procedure" against the "On Click" event.

Or open the form's code module, hit Edit : Select All, Ctrl-X to cut,
Ctrl-V to paste, then save the module. This automagically re-attaches
all of the event procedures.
