Form title

[Anthony]

I created a simple form based on a table called Soldier Personal Data
with fields called Last Name, First Name, Rank. The table has 47
records in it at this time. The form is simply called Soldier Personal
Data Form but I would like to show the individual Soldier's Rank,
first and last name, when I as I look at. Can I do this? Thanks for
your assistance.

How is this a .tablesdbdesign question?

If you want a form to display data in an underlying query (preferred) or
table, open the form in design view and add a control to display that field.

Open the form in design view and drag the objects to where you want them
displayed.

Yes, you can.

The simplest way to get started is to create your table first. Every
table should (read "must") have a Primary Key. Name a field SoldierID
and make its datatype Autonumber. Create fields for the other data
you will require. For ease of enhancement and maintenance of your
application, avoid spaces in field names.

Once your table is designed and saved, select it and click the
Autoform Wizard Icon at the top of the window. Answer the prompts and
make the choices and it will design a new form for you. You can do
that any number of times until you get a form that you like or
something close enough to what you want that you can later modify the
design.

When the wizard finishes you'll have a form suitable for adding or
editing records.

Using forms is a great leap forward for beginners. Another big step
will be when you buy in on the idea that you use Reports do display
and print data.
