If you mean you have a Continuous Forms view, and want to display the detail
of the current Record by clicking a Control containing a "+" (plus sign),
then create a Command Button with a picture of a "+", and in the Click
event, use VBA code to retrieve the unique key of the currently-selected
Record, and use it to construct the WhereConditon argument of a
DoCmd.OpenForm that will open a Form that you have created which shows all
the detail in SingleForm view.

I often accomplish this by placing the code in the DoubleClick event rather
than creating a Control.
