Command Button on Form

I have my form competed and it is doing everything I want it to do. Now I
have added a command button to open a preview report. The button shows in
the design view but disappears in form view. I had it working fine a couple
of times and then it up and disappears again. What is going on? I have
tried deleting the button and going back through the process of installing it
and again it will show in design and then disappear in form view.

Help
 
The following are possible:

* There is code that hides controls, and your new button falls foul of
that;
* you have inadvertently set teh button's Visible property = False; or
* you have placed the form on top of another control that has a higher
z-order (such as a textbox, image, tab, etc).

Once you know *why*, we can figure out *what* to do about it.

This form isn't being run in Datasheet View is it? You can add anything you
like in Design View but they'll disappear when run in Datasheet View.
