Data Entry in Data Access Page

I'm creating a data access page for data entry. For some reason, no matter
what I try, I can't seem to get an end result that allows entry. I've set
the data entry to yes, set the allow additions to yes etc. and nothing works.
I get a navigation toolbar at the bottom of my group with the navigation
buttons dimmed and not available and entering data into the fields is
impossible. What am I doing wrong?

The most usual answer to this question is a missing primary key. The
DataEntry property is used to block the display of any previous data and, by
itself, won't give you the possibility of entering data.

(Of course, I'm assuming that you are able to correctly connect to the
backend database and see some data in your page when DataEntry is set to
False.)

There is a newsgroup about DAP: m.p.access.dataaccess.pages.
