:confused: Don't have Access 2010 sadly which comes with a button wizard. Using 2007 and was wondering if there was a simple way of creating a "Save" button at the end of a form please? I know that clicking the X sign in the corner saves and closes the form but users might be wary of doing this in case the form they have completed doesn't save.

Thanks.
 
AFAIK all versions of Access have a wizard.
There is no need to specifically "save" a record. This is done automatically by Access whenever the form is closed or even if you move to another record. Access will provide a message if it is unable to save a "dirty" record. So just a button on the form to close it will save the record.
 
MA 2007 also has a wizard for butons: in the ribbon, under Controls, you have to check the Use control wizard button. Then, click the Button button :). But, if you would like to use another method, you can create a simple button, on Event tab under on click field, you create a macro: action run command, argument save record.
