    best way to reference a form or control

    According to Ken Getz in his Developer Handbook, Bangs and Dots should not be used where at all possible, as they are converted under the hood in Access so... Forms!MyForm!MyControl becomes Forms("MyForm")("MyControl") Another point, ASP doesn't recognise Bangs, another reason to use...
