Hi there

I have created two forms. Each form contains a tab control.

I would like to combine these two forms and incorporate information from
both tab controls.

What is the easiest way to complete this task?

I really don't want to recreate the forms.

Thank you in advance for your help.
 
forest8,
Assuming that the forms/tab pages don't have dupe fields...
Your primary form's Record Source will have to have the
fields that are bound to the old form's controls (on those tabs) added to
it.
I'd do that first.
Then... create new Pages on the primary form's Tab control, and copy and
paste the controls from each tab on the old form... to it's respective blank
tab on the
primary form.
There may be other ramifications for the primary form, but that should
do the bulk
of the physical layout.
