Sorry if this has been posted before - new to this forum (obviously) and on the clock to progress the database I am working on.
So my aim is to have my forms open to a new record, which I have done, but if my users need to then update or edit data in previous entries, they can click a button that allows this.
My thoughts were to add a button, then put in code so that the necessary properties changed the form from displaying a new record or records entered since opening it, to showing all records in the associated table....
As an example there is a table for purchase orders. When clicking on this from the main menu form, it opens up the purchase order form to create a brand new PO. At times though, we will need to revisit an order to attach a copy of an invoice, or update the cost of whatever was purchased.
Hope that is enough info....
EDIT: So what I am hoping for is help with answering a) if it is possible and b) what code is needed to do this?

Switching a form from data entry only to data editing
