Re: Button to create new form with same field.

This really has 2 components--the data part and the form part. You first need to do some data work, then you can open the form correctly.

Re: Customer Order Database

Isn't that true of all data, everywhere, all the time? I don't see how violating normalization will prevent mistakes. And who's to say this new method doesn't get mistakes added to it as well?
