I am using Access 2002 and my detail section of forms has turned invisible.
I can see the form elements in design view only.

Has this happened to anyone else? Suggestions?

The detail section of a form is totally blank when both of the following are
true...

1) There are no records to show

2) New records cannot be added

1) can be due to filters, query criteria or joins, or because there are
actually zero records.

2) can be caused by form properties (AllowAdditions = No or RecordSourceType
= Snapshot) or by binding the form to a query that doesn't allow updates of
any kind. Using a query with more than one table is usually the reason for
the latter.
