    Form Problem

    Hi,

    I have a form that enters data into a table. It's a pretty simple. The form is ORDERS. When I launch it from the object sidebar, the form loads but only in "add" mode. I checked all the form properties and can't find anything that would be causing the form to only be in add mode. No events exist for the form and data entry, allow additions, allow deletions, allow edits are all "yes".There are 4 records and I'm expecting to be able to navigate through them with this form.

    In the spirit of full disclosure, I have another form which had a button on it that opened this form and ran a macro to open in in add mode. However, I have since deleted that button from this other form and am puzzled that the ORDERS form opens in add mode even when I launch it on its own. I'm wondering if that macro has anything to do with it. I was under the assumption that when I deleted the button, the macro went with it as I attached to the "click" event of the button on the other form.

    Sorry if my issue is written poorly.

    if you have data entry set to yes, this will be your problem - set it to no
