Mulitple Tables with Forms

[Staelens30]

would be it be a good itdea to make a main form for the main table then add command buttons to open other forms to input to the coresponding tables or a form with mulitple subforms I would like the forms to look as professional as possible.

some apps provide all the functionality off a single "core" form

others use a switchboard, and/or command menu-bar.

depends how complicated it all is, in some ways.

------------
Look at some of the Ms templates to see how they do it. They tend to use the first example. I have used the inventory and contacts examples, and they seem quite useable

they are useful to look at anyway. The way they use a master form to manage report selection is interesting. And they have command buttons for auto-dialler, and for email-sending.

i have multiple tables all linked together that i would use to build a entire record but the form is kicking me.
