Can not see other records through a form

43 New Member
Hi,

I have created a client form and can add new records which go in to the client table without any problems.

However, I can only see one record when I open the form and can not scroll through or use the navigation buttons to see other entries - I can only see one entry.

To give some background information, the form is based on a table and not a query so I do not know if this makes a difference.

Also, in the relationships, the client table was automatically copied but with _1 suffix added (this is the same for many other tables, however I can scroll through their form records without problem.

So, I would, if anyone knows how, like to be able to scroll through the other records which appear in the table but are not visible in the form.

It allows me to enter new records without any problems, just not see the previously entered ones.

Many thanks in advance

Sounds as if you may have the DataEntry property set.
DataEntry Property


You can use the DataEntry property to specify whether a bound form opens to allow data entry only. The Data Entry property doesn't determine whether records can be added; it only determines whether existing records are displayed.

Setting

The DataEntry property uses the following settings.

Setting Visual Basic Description
Yes True (–1) The form opens showing only a blank record.
No False (0) (Default) The form opens showing existing records.


You can set the DataEntry property by using a form's property sheet, a macro, or Visual Basic.

This property can be set in any view.

Hi,

Thank you for your response. I had already set the property to 'No' but it still only shows one record yet the client table shows 12 or so.

Any ideas much appreciated.

Many thanks

It sounds like you may have the Default View of the Form set to Continuous but with an expanded Detail Section.

Greetings, I have this database I converted from Access 97 to Access 2000. Front end on the PC, back end on the server. It works fine, except for one thing: one of the reports is extremely slow (20-25 minutes to process less than a thousand records), and even crashes Access sometimes. Yet another very similar report runs almost instantly. Both reports take a couple of parameters from a user form and have SQL statements for data...

Hi! I've made a form for dataentry in a simple table. However when there are records in that table and I open the form it only displays the new (blank) record. The total number of records is 1, despite more records already being entered in the table. If I add a new record it is saved in the table and the total count of records is indeed increased by one. I can than scroll to the two records but it is not possible to scroll through the...

I have two tables in a database. One fills the drop-down and the other records the selection. Filling the dropdown with another table seems to be breaking the binding with the table it records to. VS2005 with SQL2005. I have a lot of these to do, and don't want to hard code each box. I can drop and drag the table elements to the form and they work fine, however, as textboxes. I want to add dropdown boxes populated by another table....

Ok, this is my 2nd ever post. 1st one was solved quickly. Thanks. Now I'm stuck again. My mdb has a main form with 3 subforms. Each tied to the succeeding by single autonumberID/foreign fields. Each of the subforms is in continuous form format. The forms seems to work well as far as viewing or adding records in each of the subforms, except sbf2. After I have added records in sbf4, everything still looks good. I can click around,...

Looking to do sort of the same thing you see on websites, but on access form, where when a value is selected from a drop down list, if it matches the desired value, certain form fields appear.

I have fields in the table that only correspond to Owner records and only want those fields showing on the form if the CompanyType is selected as...
