why is my form blank?

What do you mean by "I can no longer view my form"? It's still there isn't
it? Do you get an error message? Is the form off the screen? Is the form
visible but the controls seem to be missing?

I'm creating a form and while going and back and forth I can no longer view
my form!
Click to expand...

A Form will be blank if the following two conditions are both true:

- The Form's Recordsource query doesn't contain any records, so there
are no existing records to see
- the Recordsource is not updateable, or the Form is set to prohibit
addition of records, so you can't see the New record either
