Hi,
I previously created a database (Access 2007) and would like to use some of the forms that are in that DB as "templates" in a new app I am creating (Like the look and feel)
I can't remember how to do this

Please help

Probably the same question applies to copying table structures
 
Open the new DB and go to External Data > New Data Source > From Database > Access.
 
Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V
 
You can also open both databases 'side by side' and drag objects from one database to the other.
 
I was only talking about this with another developer last week. I have yet to try this myself. I understand you can do it with:-

docmd.copyobject

More information in Microsoft help Here:-


Unfortunately they don't provide an example showing copying from one database to another. Hopefully I will have a sample shortly!
