if you are using the AllowAdditions/AllowEdits property of the form add code similar to below to the Form_Load Event of your form.
If Me.AllowAdditions = True then
Me.[AddField1].Visible = True
End If
If Me.AllowEdits = True then
Me.[EditField1].Visible = True
End If
or you can simplify:
Me.[AddField1].Visible = me.AllowAdditions
Me.[EditField1].Visible = me.AllowEdits
