I have a situation where I want to open a form of "ordered items" in a matrix
format. I can create the form and open it from within another form, but once
at the new "matrix" form, I can't see how to add controls or buttons to
"Close" it.

Is it possible to do this?

Many thanks in advance for your thoughts and help.

With datasheet view what you see is pretty much all you get. You can use a
continuous form instead and format it to look like a datasheet. Then you can
have a header and footer as well as any control that a single view form
supports.
