I have a form that content all sales. Right now the default view is single form. the problem is that I can't view the form as a datasheet view when I run the form, even I already specified on the views properties allowed as both. but if I'm on the design view, I can change the view from form to datasheet view, not when the form is load as a startup form. Could anybody please help? Thank you.

I'm afraid you're not the only one who's confused, May! Your post is not very clear.
If you have Datasheet selected as the Default View in your form's Property Box the form should open in Datasheet view when either clicking on it in the Objects Dialog Box or when having it open the database thru
Tools -- Startup -- Display Page/Form.
If you open the form thru code in another form, you have to specify that you want it to open in Datasheet View by using acFormDS, regardless of how Default View is set for the form.
DoCmd.OpenForm "YourFormNa me", acFormDS, , stLinkCriteria
Post back if you have further problems.
Good Luck!

Thank you for the reply and sorry for the confusion. What I need is the first time the form is loading, I need it to open as a form view (that's why I used the default view as single form.) Then, I want user to be able to view it as datasheet view by just going to view tool bar and datasheet view ( to do this I used the view allowed property as both) But when the form load, I'm not able to open it as datasheet view. The option on the view tool bar is gray out. Could you please help me? is there a code that say, view form allow and view datasheet allow?

I would like to know if the following is possible:
I have a form and a subform. In the subform, there are records
summarized. (For ex, instead of showing all 19 fields, I only show 3 to
save space.)
I would like the user to be able to select a record in the subform
datasheet, and click a button, or double click, to bring up the ENTIRE
record. (I would have a separate form created for this).

Is there any EASY way to highlight a full row in a continuous form so
that as i navigate up & down the table/continuous form using the arrow
keys, the entire line (all fields) get highlighted ?
This will give the effect of a bar moving up & down. BTW, all fields
are locked so this form is View-Only & not editable.
Thx & Best Rgds,
Prakash.

Hi All,
I'd like to include a datasheet on my user interface but since I'm
starting to run tight on space, I'd like to have a vertically-oriented
datasheet (column 1 has labels, column 2 has values), i.e. a
transposed datasheet or datasheet in column format. A vertical
datasheet will look cleaner, eliminate the need to scroll across (for
miles) and lay out bit more efficiently since I have some long labels.
It seems like Access only...

I am using a switchboard to load a form that I would like to display in
datasheet view or table view. But it does not go into that mode when using

is there a way to set this on the form's load property?

I have a form that is based on a parameter query that needs to be opened in
datasheet view. I have set the default view to datasheet and disallowed all
other types of views other than design view. When I open the form directly,
after entering the appropriate parameters, the form opens up in datasheet
view.
However, when I access this form through the Switchboard, it always opens
the form in Form view rather than Datasheet view. How...

When I finished whitch the Design View and want to go back to normal
view, the form does not appear. Instead of that the table appears. I
only get the form when I cal it on the Switchboard.
How to solve it? (I dismissed the button like close/minimise etc. on
the form, they are also not viible on the table)

Dear reader,
In a form with the property "Default view" as DataSheet I like to hide some
fields in the datasheet view.
It is possible to manage this with the command Format>>Unhide columns, a
form pops up with tick boxes to hide or unhide the columns.

I would like to display certain columns from a table on a form.
One of my columns that I want to show is a Yes/No field so that my
users can pick their players for a fantasy football week.
If they could use the table directly, the datasheet view allows them a
check box to set yes and no for the player in that row. However, I
don't want them to access the table directly.
I can't find a contol that will let me use the datasheet view...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
