Since my question may have become lost, let me ask again. I apologize if I've double dipped. I have a database (based on the Contact Managment Wizard) that I entered data into through the table rather than the form. The table that the information is in is "contacts". I had lots of data to input from a different source which was cut and pated in. Now, I need to just input normally through the form but my data doesn't show up. It is like it is not linked. Can someone direct me in how to check this? Thank you

Hi Mabyn,

Is there any chance that you set Data Entry to Yes on the Contacts form? To check this, open the
Contacts form in design view. Click on View > Properties to display the properties (if
properties is not visible). Make sure that the word "Form" is displayed in the blue title bar of
the properties window. Click on the Data tab. Data Entry should read No. Also, Filter should
be blank.

Does this help?

Tom

Thank you Tom. The Data Entry said Yes. When I changed it my data appeared. Ah... time to get to work. Thanks again. You saved me. ;)
