Well, that sound really neat John.
Sounds like a good implementation strategy.

Max,

Your assistance would be gratefully accepted.  My thought is to turn this
into a wizard which uses 
the Add-in manager to install and use.

Do you use Rick Fishers Find and Replace?  It is a wizard, which once
installed is available from 
any database.  As such there is no importing the form into the target
database any more, the form 
itself as well as the code stays out in an mda/mde.  That gives us the
advantage of ease of 
maintenance.  The code no longer needs to stay in the form for portability,
so it can be pulled out 
into modules.  The references to the libs you need for the wizard can be
referenced right in the 
wizard and no longer need to be made in the FE using the wizard.

I worked on this a little while last night.  I am not a wizard expert (just
the opposite) but if we 
can make this happen it would make the whole thing easier to use and more
maintenance friendly.
