Form does not load new record on Load (1 Viewer)

[mudrun]

Hello -

I'm a very basic user.
Each year I have a database that's used for two months. Data is entered daily.

For the past two years, when the form is clicked on, a new record would be displayed. For some reason, I now get a an error:
Run-time error '2499':
You can't use the GoToRecord or SearchForRecord action or method on an object in Design view.

The form is not in Design View, on load.
Apologies if this question was asked/answered before.

Can you add a record directly in the table? I wonder if the database is in a read only folder or so

Yes. I can add a new record to the table. I have a, "New Record" button. When i click it, (after clearing the debug to get to the form) I get a new form. For some reason, when I load the form, and after clearing the debug error shown above, it will show the very first table entry.

That is curious. Can you attach the db here?

Would that not be because a question is posted in the code repository - as was this one?

Duh, yes, thanks. I was hunting for hidden links, missed the obvious. I've moved it to Forms.
