    Changing a couple fields in the Contacts Access Template and the form

    Hi Guys



    Im sorry if this is a basic question and Ive done some research and just having an issue.

    I am trying to use the basic contacts template database but I just need to change in the form and hopefully on the table etc the part where it says First Name and Last Name I just want to be the company name and then i just want to edit the job position field to say contact name. If i delete the fields i dont want in the table and move the company name to the first thing it doesnt do it in the form as well? and if i edit the form it still asks me for lastname etc how do i go about this?

    Thanks In Advance
    Samuel

    Likely there's a textbox bound to that field. You can delete it or change the control source to a new field.

    Something like this?
    The Contacts DB is oriented around contacts, not company, but maybe the mod will work for you.
