Friends,

Myself will answer. It is by double clicking on the rectangular space where the vertical and horizontal scales meet in the form that you get the form dialog box. From 'form' property window you can click on 'datasource' where you get the required tables in the database.

Alternately, you can also right click on the title bar of the form to get the form property box.

with regards,
