Sir,

I found out what it was:

Create a table: DogID (Autonumber), DogName (text).

Create a form using these fields.

Enter a few records on the form and look on one of the toolbars and
you see the one with the red "X' for deleting records.

Go to the form properties and change PopUp to "Yes".

You can create records on the form, but when you look up at the
toolbar, that Delete Record" icon has either grayed out or disappeared
altogether.

Something to do with the PopUp property....?


I never really noticed it before, but I see what you mean. I think it's
because popup forms aren't handled as "children" of the application window,
so the application window's toolbars don't adjust to the presence or status
of the popup form.
