Hey there again, I've come across another issue with my program:
I have a search form that allows the user to select a piece of equipment. A macro passes a value (EquipmentID) to a new form, and all of the fields are suppose to draw info from the table based on EquipmentID.
My problem is getting the fields to automatically update once you change the value. I started with using the ResourceSource of the forum, but users can cycle through enteries and once the Equipment ID changes the form doesn't update. So I'm down to several options:

Somehow use the ResourceSource correctly
Use a macro/code to fill the info in
Fill in a invisible field and pull the info from there

If you've got a suggestion on how this should be done, or you could let me know more on what's actually happening in Access, please let me know.

The form, if it remains open does not get the new Value unless you "Requery".
To test if this is the problem you should be able to use Main Menu>Records>Refresh,
if that updates the form with your new value then that is the problem.
To me it would make more senese to have the New forma a Subform to the first form, even if it is as a Tabbed Subform.
