Finding and Opening Forms Using the Select Form Dialog Box

If you know the name or caption of a form you need, one of the quickest and easiest ways to find and open it is by use of the Select Form dialog box. But even if you do not know the exact name, this is a powerful option, because of the filtering capabilities in the Select Form dialog box.

Select Form > Open.

A list of all the forms in the application is displayed. By default, forms are listed by caption, which is the title that is shown when the form is open.

To toggle the list so that forms are listed by the internal form name, select the Select by Name Instead of Caption field.
To restrict the list by filtering:
- In the All Containing field, specify the portion of the caption or name that you know.
- Optionally, to match your capitalization, select the Case-sensitive field.
- Click Filter.
The list of all forms with captions or names that match your criteria is displayed.
In the list, select the form you want.
Click OK.
