Hi,
I created some forms few months back. I tried to open it now and all I
get is blank froms which, I can see the combo box and everything in the
design mode but when I run the form nothing shows up and I also don't
see any errors. I reinstalled my comp after those forms were created,
but basically it the same version. I checked with references none of
them are missing. only strange thing I noticed was, there were several
refences available with the same name "Visual basic for application". I
am not sure if that is a problem. Any help would be appriciated.
Thanks,
Lance

The detail section of a form appears completely blank when two things are
both true.

There are no records to display
You cannot add new records

Each of the above can have multiple reasons, but the first thing to look at
is whether the RecordSource that the form is using is updateable.
