Record Selection on a Form

[slrphd]

Isn't there a way to hide the little record counter/selector thingy on the bottom left of a form? How do I set up a command button to do next and previous forms?

How do I set up a command button to do next and previous forms?

Do you mean next and previous record?

Buttons

Open the form in design view, on the Format Tab in Properties you can change the settings. Set Record Selectors and Navigation Buttons to NO.

You can easily create buttons for navigation, just use the wizard when you drag the button from the toolbox.

Open your form in design mode , select View / Properties , choose Format then change Navigation button to No

How do I set up a command button to do next and previous forms?

Again open your form in design mode select View / Toolbox then click the "Command Button" , drag it to your form and then select Record Navigation make your own choice from here.

Trucktime,
Thanks. I knew there was an easy solution but could not find it in my reference books. Once again, you have come to my resque.



Note to the other guy: You are right; I meant previous nad next records.

ansentry,
Yes to both. I must confess that I was in too much of a hurry to read the options on hte first menu and selected Form Operations. It seemed to me to be a logical place to go. Some day I'll learn to slow down. Thanks much for your help.
