Jan:  Forms and reports are the one place where you don't have to worry 
about it too much except for any expressons you have defined.  If you had a 
form expression  like:
       vID INT = IDColumn

Then you would have to redefine the expression to be double or else it will 
fail when you get above the 1999... limitation.  Otherwise the placement of 
the fields on the form will be fine.
