create and save a form

[tomro1]

hi all,

I want to, if i click a button, that access makes me a new form where i can refer to later on, so I'll have to give it a name or save it. This is what i already have but if you know something else please tell me.

dim frm as form

Set frm = CreateForm()

DoCmd.Save acForm, "form1"
DoCmd.Restore

Now, the problem in this is that if you do createform, that he makes new forms named "form1, form2, form3,.." and then if you want to save it the name is variable, and that my problem because i need to fill the name to save it. and if its possible, to save it as a different name, like : docmd.save acform, 'form1" as Test.


please help

I think you are pretty close.

dim frm as form
Dim frmName as String
Set frm = CreateForm()
frmName = "MyForm"
frm.Name = frmName
DoCmd.Save acForm, frmName
DoCmd.Restore

I'm just guessing there but it should be fine?

Regards,
Pete
