Form in Read Only mode, but subform in add mode

R

Rhysickle

I think the title says it all. I want a button on my switchboard to open a
form in Read Only mode (although Edit mode would be OK), but so that the
subform it contains is in add mode i.e. lets me add a new record, but not
edit old ones.

Im not really SQL literate, so an answer that keeps it to a minimum and uses
the macros feature of Access would be preferable.

Can anybody help?

Set the data entry property of your subform to yes. Then it should allways
open in add mode.
