Subform problem is survey db

[PaulA]

Hi, all--

Searched for posts related to this problems but didn't find anything.

I have a survey db to be used for data entry of returned survey responses. The main form is a tab control consisting of mutltiple subforms. Each survey question has mutiple parts but each response receives a numerical value.

I am using primarily option groups so the data entry looks similar to the hard copy survey. The enterer only has to click on the correct response.

The data source of each subform is a query with a numberical parameter corresponding to the appropriate question. Because of this, each subform (using continuous form views) has a blank "item" after the survey items. I have hid this on the main form and have tried to turn off the tab stops and removed all scrolls.

I can't keep from the blank item sometime appearing. When this happens, there is no way to slide up to first item.

I hope this is not totally confusing!!! If you understood this, do you have any suggestions?

Thanks.

Can you post a small-sample version of it? It always helps that way.

Thanks

The "blank" row will always show if the form allows additions. If you change the AllowAdditions property of the subform to No, the "blank" record will not be there.
