I was wondering if there is some setting that can be set such that certain records within a table are not visible when the table is opened, or a form is accessing its records.

It seems from time to time, some records seem to 'disappear' from view?!?

Other than a filter...

Does anyone know how this is possible, and what can be set or specified in order for this to be happening?

Thank you for any enlightenment...
 
You can set on form in the Format tab the visible property = No
or Control.visible = False
As for the tables i am guessing that this can be done only programmatically
 
I think I should try and specify more what the issue is:

There is a database that contains only the tables / data.

There is an interface (copy) on multiple computers that allow interactions with this database. So, many users are adding entries to a specific table.

There is a report that summarizes some of the data in this table.

Is it possible that the data being added to the table IS actually added, but if you open the table, it cannot be seen (though sometimes it can be?!?). Is there some property that exists that can be causing this strange occurrence?!?

For example, I know that you can have a filter on a table, that might show everything except the data for one user, but is there a property that can be set within the table structure that could also cause this?

Let's say that the table has fields like UserName, Date, TimeIn, TimeOut.

Everyone uses a form to enter the time they worked wach day.

If someone else opens the table, they see everyone's times for every day, except mine - after a certain date (they can see my times, but only up until, say, last week)!

If I open the table MYSELF, I see everyone's times for every day, INCLUDING ALL my own times (up to the present)!!!???!!!

Is there some setting that would allow for this to be happening, and what would that setting be
