Add Mulitiple Controls

Generally, you add controls to a form or report by clicking the appropriate control button on the Toolbox in Design view and then clicking the form or report. If you want to add a second (or several) controls of the same type, you probably return to the Toolbox and click the same button before inserting the additional control. Fortunately, this repetitive task isn't necessary.

If you want to add several controls of the same type to a form or report, simply double-click the control button instead of using a single click. Double-clicking a control button temporarily selects that control, so you can insert as many controls as you like without clicking that button again on the Toolbox. To reset the current tool selection, click another control button or the Selection arrow on the Toolbox.
