How to remove record view from a form
Hi,
The bottom of my form displays a record view that allows me to scroll thru records. But the form is a standalone form that will not display records, it simply contains buttons that will run reports, queries…etc. so then how do I remove the record view at the bottom of the form? I’ve looked at the property of the form and don’t recognize anything that’ll get rid of it. What to do?
Thanks!

Open your form in design veiw, in the properties list for the form, change the Navigation Buttons property to "No". The default is "Yes".

thank you!

one more question though, now the only thing i need to remove from the form is a vertitcal line on the left hand side that stretches the length of the form and is marked by an inverted triangle (arrow) to its left that points towards the buttons. what is its purpose & how to get rid of it?

I think what you are refering to is the record selector. Go back into the form in design veiw, as before. Find the Record Selectors property. Change the value to "No", again the default is "Yes".

thanks yet again! cud u mention what its purpose is for?

It does what is advertised. It selects the record. If you where using a continuous form there would be a selector for each record shown on the form. You could select the record the hit the delete button on your keyboard to delete the record chosen.
