Hi Anthony

>Recently I have developed some apps using bound data but now want to learn about unbound data. What other ways are there to attach a form to a table or mulitple tables? Basic data entry is my main concern.

I am not quite sure what you are trying to do. Unless you bind the fields in your data entry to form to something, you have to add a lot of code to 'scrape' the values when the user wants to save what they have just entered.

If you are trying to avoid binding the tables directly to the form, so as to be able to do some intermediate processing for example, then you may want to look at using a cursor or view. The idea is that you populate them from the underlying table but use them in the form instead.
