Form/New Record

How would I have my form open every time to a new record? I'm guessing it's
possible but I can't make it happen.
As always thanks,

If you only want to see new records (not existing ones), try setting
the DataEntry property of the form to Yes.

To "goto new recor" when opening the form, then, in stead, try for
instance in the on load event procedure of the form, something like
this:

docmd.gotorecord , , acnewrec

Or alternatively you could do something like:
DoCmd.OpenForm "frm_Name", , , , acFormAdd
