form appearence or view

[macdoum]

I've created a form named '' Employee List ''.

The form is suppose to appear as a dynamic form.

This form is accessed from a splash screen (main menu). When I click
the button on the main menu, the Employee List appears in a normal
form view ; not a dynamic table view.

I did change the form propreties so that the default view would be a
dynamic table but it dosen't seem to work..

Any ideas ?

Essentially, can't get there from the standard menu. Easiest way to do
that is:

Create another form.
Place your dynamic form as a subform on that newly created form.
Change the main menu to call this newly created form.

You asked this question in another newsgroup, and I answered it there.

DoCmd.OpenForm "Employee List", acFormDS

is what your button should read. acFormDS tells the form to open as a
datasheet.
