I have a form that has a subform that is in datasheet view. there are three
buttons on bottom of parent form and in design view they show but in run mode
they do not. I have moved them to the top of the parent and they still do
not show. The buttons have visible set to yes. How can I get them to show?

So the command buttons are on the Parent for, which is in Single Form
View, not on the sub-form which is in Datasheet view?

1) Are you sure the buttons are in the Form's Form Header or Form
Footer (not in the Form's Page Header or Page Footer).
The Page Header and Footer (and all control's in them) only appear
when the form is Printed, not when the Form is displayed.

2) Make sure that the Form Header and Form Footer's Visible property
is set to Yes.

3) Also, check that the command button's DisplayWhen property is set
to Always.

4) Make sure there is no control placed over the buttons (such as a
box or label). If so you can set the Command Buttons Bring to Front
property to Yes (Format + Bring to Front).
