Access 2007 VBA code to save data entered into a form

Hi

I have a simple Access form with a button that creates a new record.
There is however no btton to save the entries made to the table.
What VBA code would I use to commit the data to the table
and what measures would I need to stop the data from automatically being saved to the table
without clicking the buton
I used the following code which seemed to work but am not sure exactly what it does
   On Error GoTo ErrN
 
    DoCmd.DoMenuItem acFormBar, acRecordsMenu, acSaveRecord, , acMenuVer70

    Exit Sub

ErrN:
    MsgBox Err.Description
    MsgBox ("There was a problem saving this record!")Start Free Trial
