If I click on one of the buttons on the left and it opens a popup form, as soon as I do the Main Form goes blank. When I exit the popup form, the main form remains blank until I click on "Main Form" again. How can I fix this?

The screen must redraw. Click it or f5

Hey I've searched the entire internet and it took forever to find the answer, so once I found it I thought I'd post it here.

The solution was to close out of the Navigation Form by placing this code in the OnLoad event of each of the buttons on the left:

DoCmd.Close acForm, "NavForm", acSaveNo

Doing this will cause only one form to be open at a time. Then in the OnClose event of the same form, I placed this code:

  
 DoCmd.BrowseTo acForm, "NavForm", "", "[Forms]![NavForm]![NavigationButton16]", "", 1

So as soon as I close out of the form it opens up the navigation form again.
