First, I want to thank again those that posted to my last question. I value my time, and certainly appreciate those that give me their time.
Now, for something interesting.
I have a continuous form. There is a field on the form lines from which I would like to allocate its value to the caption of a button on the line, and then deferentially, based on the value, load a form when clicked...each value representing a corresponding and different form that needs to be loaded.
Say I have 3 lines, and the field values are A, B and C. On each respective line, I want a button captioned A, B and C, and when you click the button, frmA loads, frmB loads or frmC loads respectively.
Just some background...I'm trying to demonstrate that this somewhat complex database can be realized without resorting to coding, save some small and inescapable macros using Access' macro builder. That, and I haven't coded anything since the late 80's and know nothing about VBA or whatever. Just the same, I can read the code and understand roughly what it does -- and I have seen seen code examples that have clued me into what I need to do (kinda like being able to read a foreign language and get the gist of what it says but not being able to speak it).
