sorry. i wasn't reading it right.
you could do this: make a main form. make a subform with property Data Entry = True that looks like the continuous form, but is only blank row waiting for data entry. then plunk the existing continuous form below this one in the main form.
if you want to, on After Update of the top sub form (the data entry-only one), requery the continuous form below so the newly-entered record goes into it.
Forms!Main!sub.Form.Requery
{sub} is the name of the existing continuous form
Main is the name of the main form
