The following steps demonstrate how to start a Wizard from a command button on a form:

1.	Open a new form.
2.	Add a command button to the form.
3.	Set the button's OnClick property to: =WLib_wizmain("",0) NOTE: 0 invokes the Table Wizard. You can use 0, or any of the following choices in this example: Table Wizard: ("",0) Query Wizard: ("",1) Form Wizard: ("",2) Report Wizard: ("",3)
4.	View the form in Form view. Click the command button.

You can also start a wizard from a custom toolbar. To do so, see article Q113304 here in the Microsoft Knowledge base. In step 5 of that article, select Miscellaneous instead of Record Navigation, and then select Macro instead of Find Record. Then, use a macro with a RunCode action that runs the function WLib_wizmain("",0).
