Default linking forms in 2 files

Can you link forms like you can link tables?

The reason I'm asking is that I have 1 master database and 3 user databases
where I have linked the tables. Each database has the same form - for
inputing data. If in the future, I want to make a change to the form, I want
to do it only in the master database and have the other user databases update
automatically.

Is this possible?

In Access 2000, under tools/database utilities, there is a menu
item--database splitter.

There isn't a lot about this in the online help that i could find.
However, it is useful with multiusers.

Once you have made changes to your form in the master database, jsut
cut and paste it into the user ones. That's what I do!
