    Button opens form differently than double-click


    I have a form that opens quite normally when I double-click (see Pic 1).

    Click image for larger version.

    However, when I use a button to open it, the middle sort of goes away both in "Normal" view (Pic 2) and (preferred) "Dialog" view (Pic 3).

    Click image for larger version.

    Pic 4 shows the button macro.

    Click image for larger version.

    Thanks for any thoughts you might have on how best I can resolve Pic 3 to be like Pic 1 when the button is pressed!

    Change the Data Mode argument. You've told it you want the form opened to add new records only.
