Stopping Access 2003 Navigator buttons from creating new record

S

I have a form with a subform. The main form allows the user to select
an entity and then the details of that entity are presented in the
subform. I don't want to create my own navigator buttons because Access
provides them, so I am wondering if there's a way to disable the
"Create new Record" on that subform because the user cannot change
information on it.

On ehe subform set the AllowAdditions property to No. Then users will not
be allowed to navigate to the new record position. The built in buttons
should become disabled as appropriate.
