I've created an Access database for my work, and it has worked quite well. I would like to change the front end to a standalone program using VB 2005. I'm finding it really difficult to get to grips with it though :confused:

I've tried working with some of the controls and I just can't seem to get it to do the same as Access.

Here's a screenshot of the program in Access



The subform shown has text fields, hyperlink field, and combo box fields which open new forms. I've tried to get the same results with a Datagridview control but could you tell me if this really is possible? Or if it is too complicated?

Actually the datagridview is simpler than a subform. Just get your hands dirty.
