Hello All!

Well, your board has been most informative and helpful. But now i have
to give in and ask two questions. Go ahead laugh.........but im
bald now from pulling all my hair out now and i have no choice !

I am creating a database for a company i work for. I Have created a
contact database (form) that pulls in info from a table. I would now
like to create a control button on the form that will open another
form which pulls in information from another table in another access
db. If need be, i suppose i can import the form to the db i am
creating now. This other form is information that an applicant has
filled out, sort of like his online form, and i would like to let
everyone have easy access to that info right from the contact list,
but yet, have it be put away so its nice and neat until its needed.

and the second ....

On my form I did a nice little background, etc etc. It looksfine in
design view however when i go to look at it in the form view, you
cannot see the whole form, its literally cut in half on the page, and
you have to scroll down. I cannot for the life of me figure out how
to view the complete page as in my other forms.

We all have to start somewhere

Thanks so much in advance for your help and thanks for all the great
ideas and advise posted here, it has helped tremendously.

Susan
