"Cancel" buttons
One last question for the board:
On my nifty lil' form, I've got two buttons. An "okay" button which works mahhhvelously, and a "cancel" button which wouldn't work to save my life. Could someone tell me the quick and painless steps to making a cancel button? Like, if I click in the toolbar to make a command button, and I place it in the bottom...then what? The form's name is "frmJelom" if anyone must know. Thank you! |

You don't tell us what you want to 'cancel'?

Oh, my bad, man.
I want a standard "Cancel" button, you know, the kind that closes out the form and does nothing else. Like, if you got a popup and you clicked "Cancel" and it just goes away and does no harm. That kind of cancel button. I had a brain fart. "Rick B" wrote: You don't tell us what you want to 'cancel'? What is happening that you want to stop? -- Rick B "Mico" wrote in message ...

Like, if you got a popup and you clicked "Cancel" and it just goes away and does no harm. That kind of cancel button. I had a brain fart. But what is the "nothing else" that you don't want to happen? To close the form you simply need... DoCmd.Close If you want any changes the user might have made while in the form to be "cancelled" then that is another issue entirely. Access automatically saves when you leave a record to go to another record or when you close the form as well as a few other places. Is it your intention that ALL changes to ALL records be cancelled or do you just want to close the form? -- I don't check the Email account attached to this message. Send instead to...
