I have various forms on which ask<br>the user to enter data, but for some reason if I use the same form the next day the data that was entered the previous day is still there. For example on my print report form I ask the user the enter a beginning date once is entered I close the form and if I open it again the data is still there. How do clear the fields.<br><br>Any suggestion would be apreciated.<br> <p>Villica<br><a href=mailto:villica67@hotmail.com>villica67@hotmail.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>
 
That's the way Access was designed to work.<br>So you can see data thats in the database. Its Live so to speak. If you want to add a new record and blank out the fields then add a &quot;Add New Record&quot; button with the wizard.<br> <p>DougP<br><a href=mailto: dposton@universal1.com> dposton@universal1.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br> Ask me how Bar-codes can help you be more productive.
 
If you bind fields to an underlying table they will be stored there, and visible when you re-open the form. If you have no need to store the fields, use an unbound form.
