the form wizard makes subforms quite easily when you have a one to many relationship between tables.

But I have a books table, a categories table, and a junction table between them to facilitate a many to many relationship. Can I make a book entry form containing a categories subform which has listbox fields to input many categories for each each book?

I tried clicking form wizzard while a querry returning the joined books and categories fields
but this didn't digve me what I wanted.

How do I do this?

I can't really help you with this one, I don't use the forms in Access. Do you have to use the wizard or can you create a form yourself (sort of like advanced mode)?
