Default Page displaying in design view, but layout view shows blank screen

9 of the 10 pages display with no problems; one page however comes up blank.
If I look at the design view for just that page, it displays correctly, but
the layout view gives me just a blank white screen/page.


That symptom suggests that two things are true:

- the Form's Recordsource contains no records (or they're all being filtered
out) so you can't see any existing records
- the form is also not updateable, either because its Allow Updates or Allow
Additions property is turned Off, or more likely because it's based on a query
which is not updateable; so you won't see the empty New Record either.

What is this page (I presume containing a subform??) displaying? If it's a
Subform, what's the subform's Recordsource?
