So far I've started my forms using a wizard. Now I want
one that has no recordsource, so I'm using design view.
My problem is that when I go to form view (from design
view), the page header area disappears. I have several
controls in the area, so it's not empty. The behavior
doesn't change if I add a record source and put some of
its fields in the detail area. I've played around with
continuous/single/datasheet. Doesn't help.

My work around is to create the form with a wizard and
then remove the recordsource and sort values. Surely
there's a better way?
 
You are not confusing between Form Header/Footer and Page Header/Footer of
the Form, are you?

The Form Header/Footer of the Form appear both on screen and printed Form.
The Page Header/Footer of the Form only appear when the Form is printed but
they do not show on screen when in NormalView.
 
Thanks! That did it. I'd read about that once, but it
completely escaped my consciousness!
