Form Wizard Command

Use the Form Wizard command from the File menu to create a form quickly and easily.

The main purpose of Form Wizard is to help you create file maintenance-type forms where the focus is on the instances of one particular class. The form that you create with Form Wizard is complete in its own right, and can be executed immediately.

The painting of controls and the coding of simple methods associated with those controls are automatic. Form Wizard obtains the necessary information to create a form by prompting you for that information. When all the data has been gathered, a screen layout (form) is prepared, along with supporting methods.

You cannot use Form Wizard against a previously created form, whether that form was created with Form Wizard or not.
