    I have a form containing 2 frames - one is visible when the other isn't and vice versa. One of the fields in my recordset is mapped on both frames. The second frame does not map it correctly. Does anyone have a solution for this??

    The second control will only update once you've updated the record and refreshed your data ie. MovePrevious, MoveNext. Then the second control should read the same as the first.

    I think this is what you mean, if not please rephrase the question.

    Rocks,

    You would use a data control for every table you want to open, then a text box bound to each field in the table.

    Use the datacontrols .Recordset.Addnew for adding records.
    .Recordset.Update to save the changes, and
    .Recordset.edit to lock an existing record before making any changes.
