Types of Forms
In Access, you can select from various types of forms to fit your needs
by using the More Forms command under the Create tab. The different
types of forms are:
Multiple Items: In this form, you will see multiple records at the
same time.
Datasheet: This form just looks like a regular datasheet, but it is
actually a form. It is useful when you want to show a datasheet on
a sub-form.
Split Form: This form shows two sections. The upper section shows a datasheet view with a
list of records, while the lower section provides a detailed form for editing the selected record.
Modal Dialog: It is useful in creating navigation menus or alert messages. It looks like a
dialog box.
Viewing the Records
You can observe the navigation bar at the bottom of the Form window. The navigation bar helps
in scrolling between the records. It also displays the location of the selected record in the table
as well as the total number of records in the table. The First record and Last record buttons help
to quickly move to the first and last records in the table, respectively.
You can also search for a particular record in the table by entering the keywords in the Search
text box.
