MS Access -Continuous form breaks when open via switchboard

I have a continuous form that works when I manually open it. However when I open it via a switchboard button, the form loads, but no data (in the detail section) appears. What could be causing this problem? I had this issue once before, but I forget how I fixed it.

If you selected "Open Form in Add Mode" from the "Command" combo for that Switchboard item, the form will not display existing data. The consequence is similar to setting Data Entry = Yes on the Data tab of the form's property sheet, or opening the form from VBA like this:

DoCmd.OpenForm "YourFormName", DataMode:=acFormAdd
