Hi Richard,
I was looking back through some of the earlier Expert lessons (1-3) and trying to fit what I'd learned to a project I've started. I was looking at the course project from the point of view of the user (possibly locked out of the navagation pane) and limited by design to using the MainMenu form to move about the database. I may be missing something but it appears to me to be impossible to add a new customer without manually opening the CustomerF. Is this correct and by design or a little something you missed? Either which way is there a handy way to present, with the click of a button, a blank CustomerF for the user to add a new customer?

Love the classes and I'm looking forward to some of the upcoming seminars.

Regards,
Ronan

You're correct. At this point you need to open the customer form and click on the NEW button. Same problem with orders. I'm going to show you how to make an "add new customer" and "add new order" button soon. This will allow you to NOT have to open those forms first.
