Default Access 2007 - Form issue

I've used the Forms Wizard to build a form based on a table. When in design
view, I see all the fields, labels, etc. When I switch to form view, all I
see is the header or title and a blank body of the form, no fields, labels,
etc.

Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

do you have the VISIBLE property of the controls set to FALSE?

If you either have no data in your table or your form is based on a query
that is returning no records AND you have your form's Property Allow
Additions set to NO, you will get the results you're describing, at least in
Access 2000.

See:
Why does my form go completely blank?

In essence, you have set up the form so there are no records to display, and
new records can't be added, so Access has nothing it can display.
