Datasheet Form

[Guest]

Dear Techies,

I built a datasheet form and added a control to another form to open it, but
it won't open in datasheet, even though the properties clearly indicate that
it's a datasheet. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

thanks,

The OpenForm method defaults to Form View, unless you specify something
different.

Try:
DoCmd.OpenForm "Form1", acFormDS

Hi Allen,

Thank you, but what does "The method requires a form name argument"? I
received that msg when I compiled...

In the example, Form1 represents the name of the form you wish to open.

You must supply a valid name for it to open the form.
