Question : Understanding datasheet view

Hello,

I'm a little confused by the Datasheet view for forms.

When I enter the design view of a datasheet form, the layout looks like a regular single record columnar design.  But when I open the form (by double clicking on it), I get more what I expected....a Microsoft Excel like view of the data.  All the records at once, row by row.

However, when I add the form to the Switchboard and say Open in Edit Mode, the form opens more like the columnar view, similar to what I saw in design view.

How can I get a form that's more similar to Excel.  I like tubular, but I don't need the formatting/column headings, etc.  I'd prefer a simple clean line by line, like Excel, or like I saw in the preview of the datasheet view.

Thanks,
Shane

Answer : Understanding datasheet view

This should work:

DoCmd.OpenForm "MyForm",acDesign
DoCmd.OpenForm "MyForm"

This will "open" the form in its default view :)
