Rocky, On a different topic...searched the web a couple of weeks ago for some access stuff and your name and picture from an Access conference came up...hadn't noticed your name on the list in awhile. Hope all's well. Back on topic: Thanks for the feedback...That was the first approach I thought of...but I was concerned about scrolling and I don't want any scrolling if there are more choices. I used 4 and 6 as examples...but as reallity goes...I would probably need more like 30 to 40 records in the tables for some instances. I thought of using multiple subforms side by side ( same subform but with different selects)...with 4 subforms, when the user configures the data...they would have an option of which subform(column from there perspective) the data would appear in. I'm basically looking for a direction...or concept as you called it. Hoping someone has done something like this before...and would be willing to share the experience/problems/tips. Thanks Again, Mark A.
