    DB To save passwords

    Just to go a little deeper: you need to change AllowEdits=No for your new textbox (in the header), and use the record in the body to change your password. Also: if no unauthorized person has access to the DB, then you will not need to think about extra security (password not necessary). If it...

    At the top left of the form click the gray box under the form name. A black dot will appear inside the gray box. This means you have chosen the form itself and not any controls on the form.

    Error on startup due to 'Display Form'

    I would say that it is probably permissions on the network drive, because you will need full permissions on the folder that it is being run from. Check with your IT department. Also if others are going to be using the database, you should seriously consider splitting into front-end and back-end.

    New Record = 1,000 blank records?

    Because you are adding a new record under Form_Current() and under Form_Load(), I think those 2 events are firing back and forth at each other. I agree with gemma-the-husky. Just to make the form data entry and eliminate the Form_Current() and Form_Load() procedures.

    Make form exclusive

    A couple of ways to approach this: 1. Set focus on some part of the subform and loop through the controls & text boxes on the main form and set the enabled property to no. 2. Instead of using a subform, open as a seperate form and set the modal property to yes.
