every time I try to create a form, it tells me I am trying to use too may
fields. What is the field limit? How do I create a form with more than the
limit (I need a lot more).
 
The limit to the number of controls you can add to a form is 754. If you're
using the form wizard, though, the wizard itself may well have a limit that
is less than that. If that's the problem, you can probably work around it
simply by not using the wizard.

I always assumed the wizard limit would be around 377 (half of 754)
since it will usually create a label for each control as well as the field
control itself.

I could be wrong.
 
I don't know, Jeff. I don't have any tables with enough fields in them to
put the theory to the test! :-)
