Form in Datasheet mode...with a control button?

[mud2]

Hedllo...after a Looong time!
I want to design a Form (FormA) based on a Table (TableA). While in the "New" stage of a form design we are given several choices. I choose the datasheet mode. I CAN put a control button on the form...but only in the design mode. When executing the button does not appear???

Did you put the button on the Detail part of the Form?
It won't show up in datasheet mode.
It will show up if you put it in the form Header.
Or you can change the form view to "Continuous Forms" and it will appear, but you will probably have to re-arrange your fields.

Controls won't appear on a form when it's in datasheet view mode.

Try using continuous forms and recreating the 'look' of a datasheet.

Norie is correct, there is no Header shown in Datasheet view, only in the other views.

In the form's Properties click the "All" tab and you will see that your form's "Default View" is shown as Datasheet, as Norie say's in your other post. Click on the drop down arrow and select "Continuous Forms" or "Single Form".
