Sally,
 
    It might be simpler for you to provide for extra number of desired controls, at design stage itself and manipulate their visibility at run-time.
 
    If however, you are keen to experiment with creation of new controls at run-time, my sample db named CreateNewControls could be of interest to you. It is available at Rogers Access Library (other developers library). Link - http://www.rogersaccesslibrary.com
 
    It has to be noted that run-time creation of controls still uses form's design view in a transitory manner and is not therefore applicable to mde files.
 
Best wishes,
A.D.Tejpal

Subject: [AccessDevelopers] adding fields to a form

Hi,
 
     I have a database that contains a tab form.  Each tab contains
specific info about a certain record number.  The keyword form contains a number of check boxes, with the keywords for the particular record number checked. 
So, there could be 20 keyword checkboxes and only 4 might be checked.  The user wants to be able to add a new keyword to
the list and refresh the form so that the new keyword and check box appear.
     Any suggestions on how this could be done (if it's possible)?  I've tried every way I can think of....I think it might be more
advanced than I'm accustomed to!

thanks
sally
