    1- export form into new database?

    good afternoon,



    I've created a form that I think is designed fairly well, however, its in a data base that a predecessor created to meet a different objective. I've been able to modify the form to capture and display all the pertinent information I am requesting from my employees, however there are 40+ queries and reports that I have no use for.

    I'd like to start the data base from scratch, but don't want to go through the pain of recreating the form from which 200+ pieces of individual information is pulled.

    Is there a way that I can create a new database from scratch and import the form?

    Thanks in advance,
    Mike

    Sure; on the External Data tab you can export the form to, or import from the new db.

    That got me to import the form, and the linked table. My symptom still remains in that I am unable to enter information into the form fields and have the information populate onto the table...

    Was the form bound to the table in the original db? It would still need to be.
