Pop Up Form Search and Sort

[ErinB]

When you set the properties of a form to Pop Up, it takes away the ability to sort and search when using that form. Is there a way to make the sort and search functions work while using a pop up form?

Are you using code? You can set the form's .Visible property to true and false at a specific moment. You can also set .PopUp at run time, turning it on and off depending on whether the user is in "Search" mode or "Result" mode.

The user wants to be able to search and sort the records that show up in these forms. when the form is set to Pop up, the search and sort options on the toolbar are inactive. I was wondering if there was a way to make those options active when using a pop up form. I am familiar with Visual Basic so if there is a way to do it through code I am open to that option. Thank you!`
