That is the original question. I don't believe it is asking how to create a continuous form with Access. It is asking how does ACCESS take the one row definition of a continuous form and make it function as a continuous form which is a different question.
The AI code, as I already mentioned, essentially replicates what the wizard does which uses the Class module written by the original MS Access team. The wizard builds the "single" record form and the form's class module enstanciates it as a continuous form. I believe the question is how does THAT work?
Clearly, I am on one page with this question and all the rest of you (except maybe George) are on a different page. Maybe it's because you've never worked with a language that could actually build a continuous form out of whole cloth rather than by using a template which is how the Access form class module works. Only the OP knows what his actual question was and he's not talking
