RecordSelectors Property

RecordSelectors Property

See Also                  Applies To

You can use the RecordSelectors property to specify whether a form displays record selectors in Form view.

Setting

The RecordSelectors property uses the following settings.

Setting Visual Basic Description
Yes True (–1) (Default) Each record has a record selector.
No False (0) No record has a record selector.

You can set this property by using the form's property sheet, a macro, or Visual Basic.

Remarks

You can use this property to remove record selectors when you create or use a form as a custom dialog box or a palette. You can also use this property for forms whose DefaultView property is set to Single Form.

The record selector displays the unsaved record indicator when a record is being edited. When the RecordSelectors property is set to No and the RecordLocks property is set to Edited Record (record locking is "pessimistic" — only one person can edit a record at a time), there is no visual clue that the record is locked.
