Switchboard usage preventing my form loading data form my database

[Eamonn]

Hey,

I have a form set up that is working perfectly (it consists of a selection
of combo boxes for selecting records from a linked in excel sheet.) I have
now completed a switchboard which opens the form. One problem though -when
the form opens the form fails to populate my records that should be there. I
get 0 records back. If I simply enter and exit the design mode of the form
the problem is fixed fine but I really dont want that.

Any help greatly appreciated,
Eamonn

Sounds like the Swxbd is opening your form in "dataentry" mode, when what
you want is the normal "edit" mode.. Check your swxbd settings.
