dear,

NAME is a read only property.
So You can't change it during runtime.


br,

[vb5prgrmr]

If Rs.Fields("ControlName").Value = "Command1" Then
  If Rs.Fields("PropertyName").Value = "Caption" Then
    Command1.Caption = Rs.Fields("PropertyValue").Value
  End If
End If

Is about the only way in which you can accomplish what you want to do as strings or string variables will not equate to an object or control property... i.e. Command1.strPro pertyName = strPropertyName



Good Luck
