Application.CreateForm (Access)

The CreateForm method creates a form and returns a Form object.

You can use the CreateForm method when designing a wizard that creates a new form. The CreateForm method opens a new, minimized form in form Design view. If the name that you use for the FormTemplate argument isn't valid, Visual Basic uses the form template specified by the Form Template setting on the Forms/Reports tab of the Options dialog box.

End Sub
