made sure that the three "do not allow (modification, etc.)" boxes
in the wizard are UNchecked.  I still cannot get the forms to be
editable.  Is this a bug???

    Did you create a Primary key in all of the tables you created? If
you did not, you will not be able to add or modify data in any table
without a primary key.
    Have you read the "Getting Started with Base" chapter in the
Getting Started Guide? It is available at
http://documentation.openoffice.org/manuals/oooauthors2/. This chapter
is presently being revised, but it is not ready for everyday use just
yet.

Just a point, Bobby, the heading on the forms is somewhat confusing. Although it says "Read Only" it is the form which is read only and not the data.
