Need help with openform

[Erik Oe]

Hi

I need help with this:

I have a form that does not show my records when i open
it. I have 5 test records in the table, but the form does
not show them when I use the OpenForm method. The form
opens, but it seems like there are no registrations...

Please help me if you understand my problem

Hi,
Are you opening it in DataEntry mode?
Check the form's property sheet for this.

Erik:

The only two reasons i konw, to make a form behave that
way is because in its properties is defined as entry
form. or because in its initial events(Open, load,
activate,current, etc) is told to go to a new record.
To check the first option do the following:
Open the form in Design view
Get its properties (Right click the form's corner)
Open the "DATA" tab
Look for the property: Data Entry
If data entry is Yes, replace it with no

For the second chance:
Open the form in desing view and check its code to see if
there is command to go to a new record. something like
this:
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec

Good luck
