It's an odd method, but the reason you don't get new records is because your macro saves the record but doesn't move to a new one. The fix for the method you have is to add a new action to the macro, "GoToRecord" and specify New.

Why is it an odd method? What would be a more preferred method?

Ah, maybe I was premature. I don't know the flow your users need to follow or what the actual data looks like. It seemed odd to have a combo and a button alone.

Yea I am just starting out with this project and wanted to have the basics worked out before I proceed. The form will eventually have more data for the user to choose and add to the Records table.

When I first load this form, it automatically displays the data of a previous record. How can I have this form be clear on load?

Did you make the Data Entry property Yes?

The data entry property is set to "YES"

Can you attach the latest version of the db? In the sample posted earlier, the form comes up blank, as I would expect. Oh, and how is it opened? The setting may be getting overridden by an argument in OpenForm.
