    Smile Opening A New Record in a Subform

    Hello All,

    I want to setup a Subform as a entry form for a table record. The main form has a combobox that selects the record I want and the subform is updated. I want the subform to start with a blank record for the selected person in the main form. At this point I am hitting the Blank Record Button on the bottom of the subform to achieve this. I looked in several places including the macro builder, but did not find an answer.



    Please Help,

    Thank You

    Is your subform in datasheet view, continuous view or normal form view.
