Form being called from Switchboard acting differently

OK, this is a weird one, at least to me.

I have a form called frmSoxSummaryForm. When I open this up from the Forms
menu I can scroll through and see the records that are in my table called
tblSoxSummaryTable. However when I use the switchboard I created and press
the button that calls this same form frmSoxSummaryForm I don't see nor can I
scroll through the records in my table?? I can't figure it out. The form
functions fine as far as inputting and the assorted events I have in there I
just don't see the records that I do when I open it manually. Does this make
sense?

Thanks

Mark

It sounds to me like your switchboard is opening the form using the acFormAdd
DataMode argument.

Never mind. You are correct. It was Form Add. I changed to Edit Form within
the Switchboard. Thanks!!
When would you use the Form Add feature?

If you only wanted to add new records and didn't want the user to see any
existing records.
