That comment seems unjustly harsh but perhaps you didn't understand the context. It was a direct response to arnelgp's comment in post #18

if you would give an example based on the ops code.
but i think not needed, you're just making extra code to include the Tag.

To make the lengthy reply absolutely clear, I've now modified the first part of my post adding the bits in bold type:

@arnelgp
As requested in post #18, here's an example based on the OP's code from post #1 .... before it is normalised. Of course, the table needs normalising BEFORE using the tag property as suggested

In fact its one batch of code that I was optimising as I went along to explain how it worked

And since this involves a large number of controls needing identical Tags...note that you don't have to go to each control's Tag Property separately, which can be a drag...instead, you can do it in one fell swoop:

In Form Design View

1. Hold down <Shift> and Left Click on each Control, in turn, for a given Tag.
2. Go to Properties - Other
3. In the Tag Property enter (for instance) A just like that...no quotation marks

Now you're done for the A Tag group!

Repeat for each group.

Thanks linq. I was going to add that but felt my post was already over-long!

Anything for a fellow dog lover!
