Form Wizard: Step 2 – Choose Form Style
Allows you to specify what the controls on your form will look like.
When you click any of the styles listed in the Style text box, the wizard displays a picture in the magnifying glass as an example of the style.
The button type applies to your form's navigation buttons. The navigation buttons that the wizard creates on your form are as follows.
| Button | Description |
|---|---|
| Top | Moves record pointer to first record. |
| Prev | Moves record pointer back one record. |
| Next | Moves record pointer forward one record. |
| Bottom | Moves record pointer to last record. |
| Find | Displays the Search dialog box. |
| Prints a report. | |
| Add | Adds a new record to the end of the table. |
| Edit | Allows user to change values in current record. |
| Delete | Deletes current record. |
| Exit | Closes form. |
Note After the wizard saves a form, you can add additional fields to it using the same styles by selecting Quick Form on the Form menu to bring up the Form Builder.
If you select the Custom button option, you can choose a scrolling form style.
All controls created by the Form Wizard and the Form Builder are in the Wizards\Wizstyle.vcx directory. If you want to modify the styles, modify the classes in this file using the Class Designer.
