Tc Report Form

Hello guys. I have a continuous form that has enough info to have a scroll bar. When I open the form it jumps to the bottom of the list and new for new record is in black. I have tried all the settings I can find on the subject, set tab order and set ID 1 as subject. ID 1 does appear in black but still the form jumps to the last or new record line. I have even looked at Richards customer list form in his help template and set all settings to match but mine still jumps to bottom instead of starting at top and his starts at top.

OK, but when I look at Richards template the new record is at the bottom. It does look different - * (new) but it is at the bottom. Very seldom will new records be added to this report. It will mainly be just correcting or editing existing records in this form report.

I don't know what you're using to open the form... a Form can be opened to a NEW RECORD by either a macro or VBA opening the form.  I would check those and remove the OPEN TO NEW RECORD.

Raymond I don't know what you're using to open the form...  Thanks Raymond! This was the key. I had not thought about what was opening the form. It is a button on a completely different form that opens it and it had the line DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec that was doing it with new record at the bottom of the form. The form was doing exactly what it was suppose to do and when you use that cmd it puts the new record line at the top of the form and the word new located in the ID column is highlighted in black.
