Default Two page forms and page breaks

At work, I was asked to lengthen a form to two pages. I inserted a page break
and rearranged the fields to fit the two pages. When the form opened, via the
switchboard, I could only see the header of the first page and the entire
second page. I was unable to access the first page of the form to enter
data. I would appreciate some help on this. I think they are using Access
97 still.

I'm still new to Access so take it easy on me, ok?

Where did you put your page break; in the header, body, or footer of the form?

Page breaks in forms is rather out-dated. I would suggest you use the
TabControl with two TabPages instead.
