Hi Herbert
Say you have FormA with text box, txtA and FormB with text box, txtB.
Create a Command Button with the Button Wizard, select form operations and
Open Form. Of course select FormB to open. The following code will be
generated.
Private Sub CmdA_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_CmdA_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String
stDocName = "FormB"
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
Exit_CmdA_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_CmdA_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_CmdA_Click
End Sub
Now open FormB for design and create the following for the Activate Event:
Private Sub Form_Activate()
'copy content of txtA from FormA to txtB of this form
Me.txtB = Forms![FormA]![txtA]
End Sub
This is the general idea...
Thanks and Luck,
Doug
