Auto open full record

[WILYWAYNE11]

I recently downloaded a Access Contact Templet. I noticed that from the Contact list screen there was a "open" action field that automatically opens the full record. This is a real time saver, but I cannot find an argument or command that will allow me to use this command on other databases. Does someone have an answer?

Hi. Welcome to AWF!

There's probably an embedded macro behind the Textbox. It's probably using the OpenForm method.

Not without seeing it?

I looked at that Access db and it definitely uses an Embedded Macro in Click event that executes OpenForm method. This is a textbox acting like a button.
