Default How To Have A Form Start With A Blank?

Access 2007

I have created a form for input and the user wants it to start at a blank
form.

How can I accomplish that?

Your help is greatly appreciated!!!

Put the following code in the OnLoad Event of the form

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec

This will open the form in a state that is ready to enter a new record,
but also allow you to search existing records.
