"Next" Button

I want to make a form with a series of "Next" buttons... Just the standard
thing where each next button "Walks" through the steps I intend the users to
take.

Before I start the coding, is there a good or a bad way to do it? I was
intending to have NextButton1, NextButton2 etc, all stacked one on top of
the other and make each one visible or invisible as I step through the form.
I would also have a "Cancel" button that always does the same thing, and a
"Done" button for when I have finished the walk through

Is this the best way to do things, or is there an alternative method?

TIA,

Rob
 
Rob, it seems like it would be easier to use one button.

Create a form-level variable to record what step you are up to: at the top
of the form's module (with the Option statements):
Dim intStep As Integer

Then in the Click event of your "Next" button:

intStep = intStep + 1
Select Case intStep
Case 1
'code for step 1
Case 2
'code for step 2
Case ...
Case Else
Msgbox "Forgot to code for step " & intStep
End Select
