[AccessD] Create/Hide Buttons on Form?

Mark,

Have you thought about what happens when they've created enough new items to exceed your screen space?  Is a drop-down list out of the question for this app?  If this were a VB app you'd have a much easier time creating visual elements dynamically than with Access.

Just some thoughts.

Subject: [AccessD] Create/Hide Buttons on Form?


Hello All,

I'm attempting an app related to restaurant/bar management in A2K.  The 
dilemma I have is in design.  I want them to have the ability to add new 
products/seats...but I'm not sure the best way to approach this.  For 
instance...if they add a new menu item...I want a new button to appear.  
Should I make a predetermined number of buttons and hide them or should I program the app to create and place a new button when the new value is added 
( if this, suggestions?)

Thanks,

Mark A. Matte
