Change data mode from read only to edit

's Computer Specifications

I created a form and the concerning macro that open another form in read only
mode displaying a specific record. On this last form I want to be able to
click on a button and change the data mode from read only to edit so I can
make changes to the information displayed. Can you provide the codes (or
macro) to achieve this? Thanks in advance. I am using Microsoft Access 2003.

Just set the form's AllowEdits property to True or False.
