I created a form from my table - no problem. But what I want is for the form to only allow them to enter a new record. I don't want any of the current records to show or for the user to be able to go to them.

I know how to turn off the navigation buttons, record selector control box.....

I want the form to open to a blank record, the user enters the information and closes the form - done.

Help is always appreciated!
 

Excel Facts

What is the last column in Excel?
Excel columns run from A to Z, AA to AZ, AAA to XFD. The last column is XFD.
Open up the Form, go to Properties of the form, and on the Data tab, for the "Data Entry" property, enter "Yes".
This will make it a data entry form, only used to add new records.
