can a tabbed form be too big? Help!

[ma t]

I am trying to create a tabbed form with about 13 pages, some with sub reports some with standard form controls. It keeps getting corrupted, i.e., when i get to a point and go back and test it in form view, i am not able to enter any data in page 1, which had worked previously. Any suggestions? Trying to wrap up project for a non-profit and I have been going in circles for days...

i had similar problems when changing lots of data on a large tabbed subform. what i did was save, and press compact and repair. Sorted mine out first time .

i've tried that many times. Tried relinking the form source, is it possible to have too many pages? It seems like it should work just fine, but i have rebuild the form about a dozen times, and still can't get it to work... so frustrated!

i just googled the problem, seems like your not the only one.

Looks like youll have to try something else, i would suggest moving the tabs to seperate reports or forms, maybe create a button for easy usability?

Someone else will have a better idea im sure...
