DataEntry Property

I accidentally set the data entry property by clicking records, then data
entry. It was an accident. I have tried everything to get the property off
and to turn it off and to display my records. I can't figure it out. I tried
the whole remove/apply filter thing, but it won't work. I changed to
dataentry property to no in design view and I still can't view my records. I
can't even see them in datasheet view when I turn off the filter. I know they
are there because they are in my tables. I need to be able to view all the
records in form view because I need to be able to print them out. What do I
need to do, or what am I doing wrong.

Try opening your form in design view and check the "Data Entry"
property of your form. Look on the "Data" tab of the form's
properties dialog box. This property should be set to "No". Also
check the "Allow Filters" = Yes; "Allow Edits" = Yes; "Allow
Deletions" = Yes and "Allow Additions" = Yes.

I tried that and it still won't work. The form is made up of about 6 tables.
I think I am just going to put all the tables together in one table and them
do the form from the big table. I just didn't want to have to do this over.
Somebody else did the tables individually instead of putting all the info in
one.
Thanks anyways.
