Adding new records to a form straight away

[RichieP]

How do I use a form so the user can enter a record straight away? At the moment, when the user enters a form it open's at the start of the records and to add a new record they have to press "Add New Record". I want the form to open so it's ready to accept a new record straight away.

Thanks for any help.

Set the form properties 'Data Entry' to 'yes'

Almost. If I do this then I can't seem to browse through the records in the database. It only lets me add data and not adjust past records. Any way of doing that?

Have a look at this thread - it might be what you are after.

Cheers - I used:

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec on the "on load" event on the form.

Thanks for your help.
