Question
Scott,

Thanks for the code! As for viewing it works awesomely.

When I enter a new record, the datasheet works perfectly, but nothing I enter into text boxes "Antonym," "Synonym," and "Example," gets written to the table.

Apparently I've got to bind the text boxes. They're not bound now. They have no data source. What should I do?

-thanks

Answer
I thought you were using this form just for searching, not for data entry. Yes you have to bind the controls to a field, but in that case, you will have a problem with using it as a search form.

I would create a different form to use for data entry.

HTH
