Best way to create a list of items
I hope I can explain this one well. I am trying to figure out how to best create a list of items for a user to use on a form. Please see the example screen shot to se what I need.
The list needs to be displayed on a form and the user needs to be able to enter the Prices per the example.
There are two quirks...
1) The list needs to be sorted in an order as defined by the user.
2) The user needs to be able to add an item to the list when needed.
3) The list will need to display all items even if the Price is "$0.00"
4) The user needs to be able to enter the price data for each item.
Has anyone ever created anything like this? What is the best way to handle this?
I'm looking for advice and any help will be much appreciated.

They are for me. There are 12 records in your table and they all appear on the form.

I don't know why that is.
Try making the design view of your form bigger and saving it again.

This is strange. I had a horizontal rule at the bottom of the header and another one at the top of the footer. When I removed them both it worked. Thanks for your help.
