Please help.
When filling in Data for a record in a form, I want one page to have main
details and another to fill in medical details of the person. I've created
another form from the same table with the relevant fields created a
OpenForm command when I click open of course it opens the form but in a new
record.
The ideal way was to split the form in half with a page breaker and a button
in the footer fo toggle between the 2 sections, which I've seen in a sample
but for the life of me can't work out how to do the command button as the
wizard won't cooperate.
Please any advice?.

Click to expand...

Use a TabControl to split your controls across multiple pages. Having more
than one form trying to edit the same record will cause problems.
 
Worked out how to do it.
I put a page break in the centre of the form. I have 2 commands at the foot
note of the form that I can toggle from beginning of first half and begging
of second.
The command properties?? I did in Code. I copied them from a sampe database
and pasted it, then changed the necessary names to match mine.
