Default In MS Access I want form to be open for fresh record entry

Hi,

In MS Access when I am opening any form for new Record entry so I want the
fform to be opened for fresh entry only.
For Eg: Suppose there are 8 records in a the Table and when I am opening the
form for 9th Entry the Blank 9th record for entry should get open, it should
not open on 1st record.

Regards,


George

Set the Form's DataEntry property to True.

If you ***only*** want the form to be used to add records, Baz's advice is
right on the mark! If you want the form to ***open*** on a new record, but
also want to be able to use it to see the existing records, use this code

Private Sub Form_Load()
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec
End Sub
