MS-Access open form on new record

Asked by jseneris in Access Forms, Access Coding/Macros

Tags: vba

I have a form with the RecordSet set to table with an autoincrement field, ID, as the primary index.  

I added an acCmdRecordsGoToNew command to the Form.open event.  The new record for this table doesn't seem to get created until I modify one of the fields on the table which is when then the ID field get populated.  Is there anyway to force the creation of the new record right from the get go so the ID is populated before the user enters anything?Start Free Trial
