Hi, Is there a way I can add more sections to my form? For example right now I have a section named "Header", "Detail" and "Footer". Can I add my own?
 
you can add page headers and footers but that's it.

If you need additional sections you can do this by using subforms
 
Depending on what you are doing, have you looked at a Tab Control?
 
Sorry for the lack of detail in the initial post - wanted to get something posted before heading for my lunch break.

Anyway, that was what I was afraid of (having to use subforms). I'm working on a scheduling system for my fathers company that automates some redundant tasks. Most importantly the system manages the order of processes on different parts (ie, part "tubes" may be cut, then drilled, then welded, then shipped).

I'm trying to create a form that allows for the editing and viewing of all the parts and the processes for each part for a specific work Order. Ideally the information that applies to all the parts (Work order Number, due date etc) would appear at the top of the form with all of the processes to appear beneath (Separated into groups - all the parts to be welded shown together). My problem with using sub forms for this was that I need all the records to be shown without scrolling. Is there a way to dynamically change the size of each Subform to match the required size, or is there a better feature to use?

thanks,

edit: Hi Gina, As I just explained I need to be able to see all the data at once, so i don't think a tab control will be able to work!
