Not Desired Effect

D

David Whitaker

I have a main form that when it opens, I am asking for how many new records
will be added, then I pre populate a series of textboxes on each record and
then I return the user to the first record that was added then they go
foward from that point.
Now the problem is I can only get the new records viewable by closing and
opening the main form, problem is that the screen flickers during that time
and sometimes the main form falls inbehind the switchboard form.
On the main form I have tried to us
docmd.maximize
me.repaint
with no luck.
Is the away to get the main form to refresh itself without closing and
opening the form?
