Command button help - Microsoft Access / VBA

Wally

Ok heres my problem. I have a form with 5 tabs, each with a subform in
them. I'd like to create a command button that opens the subform being
viewed in a seperate pop-up. I'm trying to program the button using
visual basic, but it's been so long since I've used it so I don't know
what I'm doing. Thanks in advance.

The command button Wizard includes the function of opening a form, which is
what you are doing when you open a separate popup. You can modify the code,
later, if you feel it needful or desirable.

Thanks for the reply. I've tried modifying the code, but I dont
remember any VB commands to do so. Is there a command that will let me
store the tab value being selected into a seperate varible? I hope that
makes sense. Thanks
