The data isn't gone; the form is just in Data Entry mode, meaning it
won't show you any existing records, it'll only give you a blank form to
enter new records. If you close the form (without clicking the Save
button) and reopen it, the form should be back to normal. If you
mistakenly saved it this way, open the form in design view, bring up the
form's property sheet, go to the Data tab, and set the Data Entry
property to No. Then save the form.
