FORM GOES BLANK WHEN OPENED

[Tmconsult]

I have a form which allows the user to enter some parameters and then click a button which constructs a query. It was working fine. these fields on the form are combo boxes which lookup values from other tables. I then changed the control source of these fields to a table which will keep a log of the parameters entered by date. after I changed the control source the whole form is just blank when opened, why is this happening?

just to expand on my problem, before my form had no record source because these fields were unbound. but when I give the form a record source in the form properties, thats when it goes blank when opened.

the problem is deals with the allow edits, deletions, and additions in the properties of the form. if they are changed to no then your form will go blank, including your buttons. so just change them and your form will work
