I need to create a form (obviously query based) which will track meeting
attendance.  I already have a table with all possible attendees.  What I would
like is a form that displays all possible attendees with check boxes beside
their names.  This form must be dynamic, as the list of attendees will diminish
or increase over time.  Such a thing possible?

Thanks...

yes, it's possible. what is the desired outcome? do you want to save the
data on "who attended" into a table?

Yes...here are some additional details:
The names of attendees will come from an already existing table of "volunteers".
This table is dynamic, since the list of volunteers changes from time to
time--grows, shrinks etc.  I want the form to show the date of the meeting and a
list of all volunteers with check boxes beside them.  Yes I want to keep track
of attendance in a table, which I would relate to the "volunteers" table.
Ultimately, a report is to be generated which will be grouped by meeting date.
Subgrouped would be the list of all attendees.  (I will use a query to weed out
the non attendees)
Help would be sorely appreciated.

okay, thanks for the additional info. i'm a little pressed for time -
instead of doing an extended Q & A in the thread, how about i put together a
small demo to show you how you can set it up. it's not difficult, but the
thought of trying to explain it in a post, or several, makes me kind of
cringe (i'm better at pointing and arm-waving, but since we can't see each
other...  <g> ). let me know if you'd like a demo - i think i can load it to
my website for you to download, so you don't have to give me an email
address to send it to.
