Jim,
Assuming it's a bound form ...
Open the form in design view, right click the small black square top
left and choose properties.
Select the data tab then click on data entry and change the no to yes
...
That should do it..

Subject: [AccessD] On Form Opening


Hi all,
I am quite new at working with Access, having learned what little I know
from a very good book, and only because an accounting client needed
something that QuickBooks couldn't do.

My question is this:  I have several forms used to input data such as
Employees, Sub-Contractors, Customers, Delivery Tickets, etc.  When the
form is opened all fields are populated by data from the first item in
that particular table.  Is it possible to have all fields blank upon
opening.  Have not been able to find an answer in the books.  I figured
a workaround, but it involves a lot of work.

Also looked at the forms in the Northwind sample program, and their
forms do the same thing.  
Is it possible?

Thanks,

Jim Holbrook
