    Can not add records to a data entry form

    Hello,

    I have created a form that links back to a table that will allow me to add records to the table. I have added 12 records already but now, all of a sudden, the form will no longer allow me to add records. When I try to delete a record, it is telling me the form is "read only". When I go to the form properties, the allow delete, edits, and additions all say yes. I have not touched the Tools/Securities section of the database. What else could be causing this to happen and how do I fix it? Thanks!!

    A few ideas would be, can you create a new form to add records that works? If so, does it lock up after 12 records? Although it is VERY rare, Access does do some VERY strange things from time to time. So if a new form does not do it, create a new table just like the offending one, copy the data over to the new table, and try it.

    Last resort: Can you provide us a copy of the database? Or at least the offending table and form?

    HTH,
    Vic
