Bob,

In a formset, the dataenvironment is contained by the formset, not the forms. You refer to the dataenvironment as ThisFormSet.DataEnvironment.cursor.blah.blah.blah... All forms in a formset share the formset's dataenvironment by default. Since each form in the set is already instantiated all you have to do is show/hide each form. When the last form in a formset is released the formset is automatically released. ThisFormSet.Refresh(0) automatically refreshes all forms in the formset. I could go on ad nauseum about the advantages of using a formset. The only issue I have to deal with is if I want only one of the forms in the set to be modal. This is not supported. So, I simply llaunch a single form formset designated as modal and life is good.

MSFT did not add the MemberClass or MemberClassLibrary properties to the formset class, only the form class. Bummer...
