BTW, setting Allow Additions, Allow Deletions and Allow Edits to Yes would make one think that you plan on using this Form to view/edit/delete existing Records, as well as New Records. If this is a correct assumption, you need to change the Data Entry Property to No. When set to Yes, this property only allows the entry of New Records...old/existing Records cannot be displayed!
Common sense would dictate that a property named Data Entry would have to be set to Yes, in order enter data! But this isn't true! Assuming that you have an updatable Recordset, you can enter New Records and edit existing Records as long as Allow Additions, Allow Deletions and Allow Edits are set to Yes.

The problem with making anything foolproof...is that fools are so darn ingenious!
