    How to make many textbox or many command button in the same time ?

    there is a limit of 754 controls that can exist on any singular form. Access will cry if you do any more. I think the answer lies in correctly defining what it is that you really want to see. If you want to see each record in the table then simply drag the table onto your form and have an...

    Simply rerun the query then. Once a record is saved to the table the query will be able to read it, just re-run the query.

    First set the can grow property of the text box on the report to true then your vba code should have "NZ(strText)" which will, in the case that you have null value in your table, set the text value as vbnullstring instead and your problem will go away. i.e. Do Until TextHeight(Nz(strText)) <...
