[AccessD] Recordset to a Continuous Form

The problem is still one of continuous forms.  The only thing that
creates a continuous form is a bound recordset.  With unbound forms, you
have to view one record at a time.  A continuous form is an optical
illusion of sorts, with only one set of controls on the form, so there
is no unbound equivalent unless you want to populate a list box or a
grid with the data.

Susan,

I'm not sure what you mean by the "forms recordset" property. The Help
MS provides with this property is more to do with using it like:

Set rst = me.recordset................

But that is assuming you have a bound form to a query or table.

Is there another method you have in mind that I'm missing?

Thanks
Vlad

I've never tried this -- would the form's Recordset property work? 

Susan H. 

There's not really any such thing as a continuous *unbound* form.  The
only thing that makes it a continuous form is the bound recordset.  You
can display a recordset in a grid control, but it won't behave the same
as a continuous form.  Perhaps if you explain what you're trying to
actually accomplish, someone can help.
