Default See data from an existing table in a form

No sure what I did....but I can no longer see my existing data in the table
on my form; my form will only allow me to input new data.

Anybody have an idea on what to check in the form to allow me to see the
existing data in the table?

Set the form's Data Entry property to No.

Ok...Works well when I am just using the form; but when viewing the form
through the switchboard it still will not allow be to see any of the existing
records. Can the switchboard be changing the value of that form?

Check your Switchboard Manager setting for opening the form. Be sure Open
Form in Edit Mode is selected. It sounds like you have Open Form in Add Mode
selected.
