hello, can anyone shed some light on how to go about working on this.
i.e, user will be allowed to specify the number of textfield/s to be displayed in the next form. thank you very much. :)

Hello

Check this link

http://in.geocities.com/raghavendra_...ddControls.zip

It will show, how to specify the number of textboxes
and add them on the run-time to the second form.

I guess this is what you have asked.

Hope it helps

Hello Astro

Check this link
http://in.geocities.com/raghavendra_mudugal/db2.zip

Unzip this file, it contains a access2003 version
database. It contains two forms. when you open the
Form1 and when you click the command button, it opens
the Form2 and adds the Textboxs at the runtime (dynamically).

The code which i sent you previously it works with
VisualBasic not with the VBA. Here the syntax are bit
different.

I guess you needed this help with using VBA. In the above
code given by you to implement in the command2_click
event, i guess you want it in the MS-Access forms.

Open the form in the design view and check the onclick
event of that button. There you can see the code of
adding the controls and opening the form.

Hope this helps.

hey Raghavendra_Mudugal, thank you so very much man! thanks.

hey Raghavendra_Mudugal, the latest code you directed me to creates a predetermined number of textfields (5). can you guide me on how to process a numeric input which will then display the number of textfields specified. sorry to trouble you. thanks.

Unzip it, its an database of access2003 version.

Here i have changed the code to accept the value from
the textbox (i.e how many you want) and click the
button that will adds number textboxes to the second
form.

Hope this helps.

sorry for the trouble Raghavendra_Muduga, db3 did not seem to work. the number of textfields are static. it worked once the first time i ran it though.
