    DataSheet View Question


    I have a main form and a subform the subform displays the data in a datasheet View. I've had a new request that requires me to put a command button on this subform. Which I've done but it doesn't show up in the Datasheet View. Is there any way to put a command button on the datasheet?

    Not that I'm aware of, which is one of the reasons I don't use it (prefer continuous). You can get pretty close to the same look in continuous view and have your button, or perhaps use the click or double click event of a textbox.

    That's what I did used continuous forms. Thanks for confirming that.

    For future reference, a workaround that can be used, on Datasheet View Forms, is to use the Double-Click event(s) of one or more Textboxes, in place of Command Buttons.

    Actually, need to find my glasses! The #@%$ cat is worse than a magpie, and snags anything shiny and smaller than herself, and hides it!
