Text Box automatic Labels

[alan]

I would like to know if there is a way keep the labels
from being automatically assigned to text boxes when
draging them from hte field list. It is so annoying to
have to delete them maunually. Thanks for your assistance.

You need only do it once. Drag the first textbox to the form and
delete the label. Then select Set Control Defaults from the Format
menu.

I tend to work with the labels, that is, I allow Access to
set them, but have some code which runs through form
labels and formats them to my preferred settings, ie Font
etc. My code also replaces underscores with spaces and
capitalises the label letters.

Why not give that a try ? It will be a good exercise for
you : )

Where would such things be found out about? What books would you recommend?
