Starting a Form on a Blank Entry

[soupisgood84]

This should be an easy one, but I looked and couldn't seem to find the answer.
How do I make a form start on a black entry page? When I open my current form it begins at the first entry.

In the Load event procedure of the form:
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec

Hope This Helps, PH.

Or simply on the forms property sheet, set Data Entry to Yes.
Of course, I'm assuming you met to type blank instead of black.

Thank you very much. Exactly what I was look for. My apologies for the misspelling.

. . . or in the [blue]On Load[/blue] event of the form:

[blue]   If Not Me.NewRecord Then DoCmd.RunCommand acCmdRecordsGoToNew[/blue]

[blue](also prevents error if no records!) . . .[/blue]

See Ya! . . . . . .
