I am very new to access. I just found out about the "form" feature. I am
creating a form that I have linked to a back-end database table. Id like to
have the form clear after the final text box has been completed and the focus
to p be placed on the first text box. Also, I dont want to be able to see the
information on the linked BE Database. Can anyone help?

Set your form's DataEntry property to Yes. The form will then allow you to
add records only. You won't see any other records than the ones you type.
 
Thanks. Thah helped a heap. Is there a way I could have the form only enter
information into the BEDB, but not pull information from it. Once a user
finishes a form, I would like for the information to be placed in the BEDB,
but there be no records to cycle through.

Open the form in design view, set the property as I mentioned, then save the
form.
