Holy crap Batman, where do you find THAT?  And compact doesn't clean that up
eh?

Sometimes I can't believe what a POS we develop in.  8-(

...it's not necessarily the number of controls currently on your form
...Access has a built in limitation of 754 controls that can be added over
the lifetime of a form ...so even if your form currently has only 20
controls on it, if you've added and deleted controls frequently over its
lifetime, you'll most likely have to recreate the form ...HTH :)
