When controls are tabbed all the way through a form with bound controls it automatically adds the record to the table.

Is there a way to prevent this? It is placing an invalid record in a table and I would like to prevent this from happening.

Try setting the AllowAdditions to false in the form designer on the Data Tab of the Form properties

There is more than one way to skin a cat...but who wants a skinned cat?
 
I tried that, but when my form loads I get a blank detail section. (bound form)

Under Form Properties, set Cycle = Current Record

Then you will need to add a command button to save the record.
 
jkl0,
Thank you for the easy fix.
