Don't like navigation form and never used it. But just did a test and the 'drag and drop' is just frustrating, assuming it's even supposed to work. Set the Navigation Target property in the Property Sheet instead.

I am sorry, do you mind sending me a screenshot of what you are referring to? Thanks for your help by the way. I am currently in a course covering access, and this is the last problem I have to solve. This forum has been beyond helpful!
Never mind! Got it! Thank you!
Forum etiquette, here and elsewhere, dictates that when the OP solves a problem, on his/her own, they post the resolution, so that others coming to the thread with similar problems can also be helped.
In this way, the OP is contributing to the forum, as well as taking from it.
BTW, a belated welcome to the AFN!

The problem with making anything foolproof...is that fools are so darn ingenious!

sknechte,
You've already solved your problem, so I do apologize for the unnecessary spam. However I was struggling with the same problem and got things to work after watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovcxmeyrILQ
Hopefully other newbies like us will find it useful
Regards
For those who don't want to or can't watch youtube, options are:
1. drag and drop onto tab row, not white space area below row (arrrg, so simple!!)
2. click on tab and type object name, then click again to type a different caption for the tab
3. right click > Insert Navigation Button to create a new blank tab then enter object name in TargetObject property
