Creating a Form Using the Form Wizard

Forms allow you to enter data one record at a time. Often, it is easier to enter data in a well-designed form rather than in a wide datasheet. Like other wizards, the Form Wizard walks you step-by-step through the process of creating a form.

To create a form using the form wizard:

  1. Double click Create form by using wizard.
  2. Click the Tables/Queries drop-down arrow. Select the table or query to base your form on.
  3. Add the field or fields that you want to include in your form. Click Next to go to the next step.
  4. Select the form layout. Click Next.
  5. Select the graphic style for your form. Click Next.
  6. Give your form a meaningful title.
  7. Click Finish to open the form and begin entering data.

You can create a form that has fields from more than one table or query.
To create a form using the Form Wizard:
  1. In the Forms window, double-click Create form by using wizard.
  2. Click the New button. Click Form Wizard. Click OK.
  3. Select Form from the Insert menu. Click Form Wizard. Click OK.
  4. Click the New Object toolbar button arrow. Click Form. Click Form Wizard. Click OK.
