RE: form

Hi Marion

Thank you for posting to our forum.

Hopefully by the end of your course today you will be able to create a new form as you will be covering this as part of the course.

As a quick reminder:
In the Database window, click Forms under Objects.
Click the New button on the Database window toolbar.

Enjoy your training

Access tip:

Closing form after a certain time period

To make a form close automatically after a certain time period, you need to assign the close function to a macro.

Save the macro and ope up the form in design view. open the Properties sheet.

In the TimerInterval property enter the length of time you want the form open for. This should be in milliseconds, so for instance if you want the form open for 5 seconds enter 5000, for an minute enter 60000.

You now need to attach your macro (to execute the Close action) to the OnTimer event property of the form.
