the textboxs that get populated from the table are later on, when they are running the app for a second time for example. First time you run the form it will check to see if the table is empty if so it will display form1 with 6 text boxes. Fill in the boxes and then click Save* (thank you for the code on that one) Then next time you run the form the table will already be populated. (Table only populates once) so it wont load up form1 instead it will continue and show whats already in the table. If that makes any sense.
