Open form to blank form elements?
Good Day All,
I have a form I use to lookup items in my tblinventory. when I open the form from my switchboard, I want it to open up "blank", then I can use my cmd buttons to perform my searches or lookups? Any ideas? Brook |

Any ideas? Brook So open it in DataEntry mode. Use the acFormAdd argument of the OpenForm method. -- I don't check the Email account attached to this message. Send instead to...

Brook,
... or, use this: DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRecord .... in your code when the form is opened. One difference between this and the idea suggested by Rick is whether you want to be able to scroll back through the existing records. -- Steve Schapel, Microsoft Access MVP Rick Brandt wrote: So open it in DataEntry mode.
