why does my input form appear blank in input mode Larry 12/31/2008 12:47:00 PM I am developing an input form and a couple of report forms. The reports work fine, the problem is with the input form. Suddenly as I am writing the code and go to look at the product for appearance, the form page is blank. When I right click on the background and select design mode, the design page is present. Any help would be appreciated.
