Default Forms & Subdatasheets

Hello all,

I have a quick question regarding forms with Access that I've been trying to
figure out and really can't (on my own). Actually, since I'm already here,
I'll take the time to ask a couple of questions.

Let's say I want to have a form that displays a list of customers. Each
customer is associated to multiple "reachouts" - i.e., conversations our
company has had with the client. Since this is often a many-to-many
relationship, I use a junction table to bring them all together.

Then, each reachout is associated with various contacts - some internal,
some external. (The internal and external contacts have their own table).

The way I structured the form was to make a main form based on the
reachouts, and a subform based on the external contacts. Then, a mainform
based on the client, and a subform based on the form that is based on the
reachout-contacts.

Here are the questions:

1 - How would I structure the form so that I could see a continous list of
clients?

2 - If my contacts are in two different tables - one for external and
another for interal clients - how can I make them show up side-by-side

3 - Is it possible to change the text from "record" to what each "strip" is
for - i.e., contacts, reachout, client.

4 - Thanks!!
