Access Form

Am creating a personnel database, have created the appropriate tables and am trying to create an entry form for the tables. I wish to create a form with different page tabs for each area of data (personal details, qualifications etc,). In the design view can easily add the appropriate tabs, but cannot figure out how to bind each entry section on the form to a given page tab. Any help appreciated plus any top tips y'all may have on personnel databases!

The TabControl is simply a visual organization tool. It doesn't have any
impact on data binding. If you're saying you want controls on different
TabPages to be bound to different tables then you need to use SubForms
embedded on each page.

Maybe this is your problem??

Change the background of the tab control to normal if it is set to transparent.
You will then be able to paste objects on any page you choose.
