Hi,


I have a Main Form set to open when the database opens. On the Main Form I have command buttons to open other forms.


How can each form that opens, including the Main Form, show in different tabs so the user can go back to the Main Form if needed?


Thanks,
Bill

Thanks Mike but I had it selected already but it isn't working.


Can you look at my database?


admin is the password for Administrator button


I appreciate the help,
Bill

Mike,


I have a popup asking for the password. Could it be ******** when typing so it hides the password? I know this is off topic so should I start a new thread about it?

Hi

You had VB on each Button to Close the Current Form. I just commented these lines out
