Forms and Screen Design What is a form? A layout on screen which allows users to make choices, enter data or view data. They are found in: PC applications packages, web pages, databases, etc, etc.

The easy way to create a form Click on New Form and Form Wizard. Select the table. Follow the instructions. So why not always do it that way?

Problems with the easy way It just produces a list of text boxes for typing data: - slow. - allows typing errors.

More sophisticated design - uses other controls (i.e. objects other than text boxes) where appropriate. - takes the perceptions of the user into account (Human-Computer Interaction). See Britton and Doake, sec. 9.6.

Controls - examples Option group Command button Combo box

Text box … also labels

Properties Controls have properties that can be varied: e.g. a label has the property “font size”. Properties are different for each type of control. Objects have properties  controls are objects  forms are objects  therefore forms have properties too: e.g. “format”.
