    Forms Navigation Bar on every form

    I've created my own custom graphical navigation bar. I have sliced all the images and have them in a form. I want the navigation to be on every form, but if I have to tweak something I don't want to have to update EVERY form just to add a button, etc.

    How can I easily reference the nav bar so I only have to update in one place?

    TIA

    Could probably have code for a navigation bar template in a general module. Call the module from each form Open event. Code specific to a form would be added to that form's event.

    This has been done in the past, I forget by whom, by making the 'navigation bar' a Subform and then simply adding the Subform to each Form.
