I watched the "Wizards Don't Start" video. The command button wizard won't start inside my sub-form. But if I drop the command button on the main body of the form (outside of the subform) it does start (hense the 'sorta'). QUESTION: What are the rules/relationships between command buttons versus locations on forms? I did end up dropping the command button in the sub-form and successfully used SQL to get it to work. Many thanks in advance.
No, Mark, you're not crazy. That's how Access works. The Control Wizards don't run if you drop a control on a subform. You have to open up that form separately in design view, and then you should be able to use the Control Wizards on it.
