Several of the commands on my switchboard are used to open forms. The forms are defaulted to open in form view however a couple of them I need in Datasheet view.
I have located the select code for the switchboard command buttons (pasted below) and guess the relevant lines are:
' Open a form.
Case conCmdOpenFormBrowse
DoCmd.OpenForm rs![Argument]
Presumably I can get the datasheet view by changing to:
' Open a form.
Case conCmdOpenFormBrowse
DoCmd.OpenForm rs![Argument], acFormDS
but then all of the forms will open in DataSheet view and I need to be able to specify.
Can anyone suggest the most efficient way of dealing with this ???
Thanks in advance for any bright ideas !
