To start, set the recordsource property of your form to the table Customer. Then set the Record Selectors property to Yes. Then set the Navigation Buttons property to Yes. If you have any textboxes on your form set their Control Source property to the desired Field.

This form is in Access correct? If it is then view your form in Design view and click the menu View > Properties. In this properties window you will see the properties I listed. Make sure the properties window is displaying the data for the Form object.

I am working on finishing my FAQ for this site soon so stay tuned and we get allot of traffic here with allot of knowledgeable members.

You can not bind a label control to a control source via a property setting. Can you use a textbox control instead?

[nileshhthakur2004]

ok i will use the TextBox for Displaying CustomerID insted of using Label..
now i want to create one form which having ComboBox in it,which is bind with db table when user will select perticular records from ComboBox then Data related to it should be display in othere control's how can i do this ??

When you add a combo box control to yoru form a wizard should popup and give you three options. Select the bottom one that says - "Find record on my form based on the value I select in the combobox" and follow the steps in the wiz.

Create a Public boolean variable in a Module so you can set it to True to display a button and False if not from the first form. Then in the Form_Load of the second form you can check it and act accordingly.
