While in Design mode i have used my toolbox to enter a command button to my
form. What i want the button to do is to forward me to another blank form so
i can enter data. When i try to use it, it states "you can't go to the
specified record.
 
Unless you post the code tied to that button, it would be very difficult for
us to help you. just saying that you have a button does not really tell us
anything about how that button is built and what it is trying to do when you
click it.

Share the code with us.
 
It sounds like you used the wizard to make the button. The error often
appears when you have a field that is required but not filled in. The simple
solution in this case is to make sure that any required fields are filled in.

Click to expand...

Is the form's Allow Additions property set to Yes? Is the form's
recordsource updatable? If you scroll through the records on the form,
can you scroll past the last record to a new, blank record?
