    Popup Form is blank white

    I have a popup form on a few macros, it is activated by the open form command. I put in a text box and it displays. On one particular macro, that runs many queries, the popup shows up, but it is blank white. Ideally I want an image, but when testing with even just text boxes it shows up as blank white. Any ideas? Is Access simply just not capable of popup forms when running many queries in a macro?

    Not really following all of your explanation, but Controls don't appear in Form View when three conditions exist at the same time:

    • The Form is Bound to a Table or Query
    • There are No Records in the underlying Recordset or the Recordset cannot be accessed
    • The Form cannot have New Records added

    The reasons that a Bound Form cannot have New Records added include:

    1. AllowAdditions for the Form is set to No
    2. The underlying Query the Form is based on is Read Only
    3. User doesn't have Read and/or Write Permission for the Folder where the Data resides or there is a connection problem with the network.
    4. Folder the File resides in (in versions 2007/2010) not having been declared as 'Trusted'
    5. Form's Recordset Type is set to Snapshot
