Thank you for the suggestions. They have helped. I think that I have all
the tables constructed (maybe), but the assimilation part is proving more
complicated than I had thought. As I establish relationships between the
tables, I seem to get less functionality and information retention than
before. The following is my table structure. Further assistance would be
greatly appreciated.

Table structure-----

The following information may be necessary: ProgramID is a four-digit
number
that we assign to students as they apply for our program as a method of
internal tracking; all courses are available each semester; there are 7
course requirements that are common to all 5 concentrations.

I would like to create a tabbed form that contains one tab for basic
student
information and subsequent tabs that contain scheduling data for the
requisite courses based upon the student's chosen concentration (i.e., one
tab for each concentration, but only the appropriate tab accessible based
on
the "Concentration" selection on tab 1).

If you're still even reading this, thanks.
