I dropped my button !

[TomH]

I like using the wizards for adding certain simple objects, like buttons to open forms, etc. However, if I drop a button onto a form and close the wizard accidentally, I lose the ability of using it for that control. Is there a way of bringing it back up or do I simply have to do what I've always done... delete it and add a new one?

THANKS for any help.

Since no one else has answered, to my knowledge there's no way to restart the wizard. You can either manually add the necessary code or do what you're already doing, delete the button and add another. That will use up one of the controls a form is limited to, but that's not usually a problem.

it's straightforward to see what ita button click does though. JUst see what you got with the wizard, the create a buttonclick event for oyur new button, paste in the code from the old button, and amend it - easy peasy.

There are loads of things a button can do anyway - not just a click, and you often need to use code, anyway.

When I need a button I cancel the wizard on the first opportunity and set it up manually. Then I Copy and Paste for the rest of the buttons on the form.
