While designing a form, the Form View goes blank, Why?
This happened while designing a form. I finally noticed I was using too many
tables, now it is happening while designing a report. I would like to know what causes this so I can learn to avoid it. |

I would like to know what causes this so I can learn to avoid it. A Form based on a query which a) returns no records and b) is not updateable will be just blank - not even the controls visible. Be sure that your tables are correctly related and that your Query has appropriate joins. Ordinarily one would not base a Form on a multitable query - use a Form (for the "one" side table of a relationship) with Subforms (for the "many") instead. -- John W. Vinson [MVP] |
