I have a mutli-page form and I want to be able to use
PageUp & PageDown to go from one page to another, but not
from one record to another. Is there a way of detecting
what page of the form you're on and disabling the PageUp
key if you're on page 1 and PageDown if you're on the
last page? I've tried putting text boxes in the page
footer and can't see them, and I've put them in the form
footer and get #Error. How do I tell which page I'm on?
I would also like to make certain pages visible only to
certain users. I don't want to use a tab control.
Thanks.
 
I have never heard the term 'pages' used for a form. Allowing some users to
see and other not to would require a tab, sobform, or some other
Access-suported method. What you call a 'page' will be different depending
on the size of your monitor and the resolution set.

Someone with a finer resolution would get more on the screen. What if you
maximize the form?

Not sure how you could define a 'page' on a form. I would use tab controls,
or sub forms and set the visable property absed on the user, if it were me.
