new record button unabled

[aurosunil]

I am a beginner in access. iam developping a multiuser application for managing postal address. i am working in ms access 2000. i created a new access project and created a simple table. but i cannot enter data into it. i created a form based on this table but there is nothing in the form in datasheet view and new record butoon is disabled. connection to MSDE is successfully established.
can any one help me?

Access requires that linked tables have a unique primary key. Does yours?

yes, there is one unique field.
I thought making a field unique means it is set as primary key but by declaring it explicitly primary it is functioning now.
Thanks a lot.
It is really encouraging for a beginner like me.
