Select Record - Continuous Form

Asked by alliedtech in Access Forms, Microsoft Access Database, Access Coding/Macros

Tags: Microsoft, Access, 2007

I have a standard continuous form(appears as a datasheet) with basically every property (record selectors, scroll bars, etc.) set to none/no.  I have those turned off because I feel it creates a much cleaner and more professional view for the form.  However, I am have two goals in mind that I am struggling to accomplish....

1. I have several buttons that delete, edit, etc the selected record, but since the record selectors are set to none, I am unable to select a record.  I want to be able to click anywhere on a record's row and select that record.

2.  When I select a record, I want that row to be highlighted similarly to the way it functions in datasheet view.
