    Form not saving multiple records in Table

    This must be Access 101, but I've never created a table from scratch before. I just created a form and a table with matching entries. Right now when a user fills out the form and closes that form, everything is saved in a table correctly, but when the user goes back in the form to fill it out for a different item and closes the form, the information in the table is just replaced with the new information. I want the table to create separate entries for each time the form is filled out, allowing duplicates as well.

    Thanks!

    Try changing the Data Entry property of the form to Yes. You can also control it with one of the arguments of OpenForm.

    That worked, I swear I tried that and it didn't work the first time but I must have not tested it correctly.

    Thanks!
