DoCmd.OpenForm "xxxxxxxxx" question

[unknown]

Can some one give me some "air code" to open a form in datasheet read
only view. This...
DoCmd.OpenForm "anyform", acNormal, acReadOnly
....will open my form and I can toggle back and forth between form and
datasheet view. I would like to start in data sheet.

Is there an alternative to "acNormal" that will force a starts in
datasheet view?
Thanks for your time
Ralph

Ralph,

A good method to consider is to first check Access or VBA help.
Open your code window.
Highlight (or type) the word OpenForm and press F1.
The selected method help file will appear.
Your answer is right there. Try the second view constant.

Thanks Fred... I did look there, as well as search for datasheet, and
in about a dozen books.... For what its worth.. and I do appreciate
your response. The help is "somewhat" confusing... even knowing that
it was there it does not jump out at you and requires clicking on
hotspots to further expand the information.....
But hey I learned something....... Thanks
