I've created a simple form in Design View that will not
display in Form View. I know I'm doing something very
basically wrong but can't find it. Other similar forms
display in all views.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

The detail section of a form will appear completely blank when both of the following
are true:

1) The form's Recordset currently has no records to display. This might mean that
there actually are no records or that a filter has been applied that has no matches.

2) The form and/or the underlying Recordset do not allow new records to be added.

If your form is bound to a multi-table query the structure of the query has likely
rendered its ResultSet non-editable. See if you can open the query directly and make
edits/additions.
