creating a form

it is very easy to create a form where you select which fields are shown.
first you open up the database window then go to forms which is under objects. click new, then a window will open and you chose one of the autoforms or wizards. i chose to use form wizard.
in the drop down thingy you then choose which table or query you want the information to come from and click okay. another screen will open and you double click which fields you want to be shown and click next.
you then have to chose which format you want it to be shown in and click next. you then get to choose which background you want and click next. finally you name the form and click finish.
you are able to go through all the records with only the selected fields showing or go to the first or last record in the file.
here is an example of a form i created.
