Open a form to add records

[Guest]

When using the switchboard, an option for opening a form is "Open a form in
ADD mode." But when I try to add a button to other forms (being used as a
switchboard) I cannot open the form in add mode... Any suggestions on how to
accomplish this?

in the command button's Click event procedure, use

DoCmd.OpenForm "FormName", , , , acFormAdd

substitute the correct form name, of course.
