Form Design

Is there a way to copy fields/objects on Forms by dragging & dropping (eg whilst holding Ctrl as in Word/Excel)

RE: Form Design

Hi Phil,

Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum.

As far as I am concerned you cannot use Ctrl and Drag to copy fields on a form. However, you can use this technique to copy Database Objects.

You can use the Copy and Paste or the associated shortcut keys.

I hope this answers your question.

Regards

Simon

Access tip:

Deleting duplicate records from a table

You cannot delete records tables where there duplicate records. A way around this is to create a new table which wont hold the duplicates. and then deleting the old table.

1. Use a make-table query based on this table only. IMPORTANT - Ensure that you include all of the fields from your original table or you may loose data.

2. Open the query's property sheet by using VIEW, QUERY, PROPERTIES, and set the Unique Values property to Yes

3. Because you have selected the Unique Values to Yes when you run the query, Access creates a new table without duplicate records. You can now delete the old table and rename the new one.
