    Open Form in Dialog mode in Add NewRecord

    On a Main form I have an Option frame with 2 choices "View" and Add". If Add is chosen I want to open a new form in a Dialog view with the form ready to add a new record. It should be easy but I have lost my way. Any help? If the choice is "View" I have no problem I pass the recordsource in the OpenArgs parameter. The data passed is an ID value.

    Use the data mode argument of OpenForm to open the form in data entry mode. Another option for view that might be simpler:
