Showing datasheet

I can't seem to get my form to show datasheet bt default. If I run it
from the databse window, it works just fine. But called from a button
on a different form, and it goes to form view instead. I have the
proerties set to "Defaultview=datasheet' and "Views Allowed=datasheet"

If you open the form from a command button on another form you must
explicitly open it in Datasheet view:
DoCmd.OpenForm "FormName", acFormDS
