Help: Can't create more controls on this form

[Guest]

I got an error message when I tried to add more controls on my form. The
message says "Can't create more controls on this form or report. If you have
deleted controls from this form, you maybe able to rename the form and add
more controls to it."

Can anyone help me solve this problem? Or is there a limitation for
controls on one form?

Thanks,

There is a limit to the number of controls on a form (I do not know how many)
so if you have added and deleted those are still included in the total.

Try to compact and repair.

I did try compact and repair, I still got the same message. Is there any
other ways to add more controls? Such as rename all the controls as
sequential numbers. Will this helpful?

Thx

Anything wrong with reading Access help?
