    how to close all forms on the screen programmaticly?

    Opening a form with a selected record from a grid

    Tamar, I understand your confusion, however I am learning how to articulate the problem better thanks to all the pros in the forum. The calling form is the form named "change" it is a simple navigation form with a grid. It is called from a cmd button captioned "Find Record." The grid shows the...

    Opening a form with a selected record from a grid

    Judi, I did not suspect the autointeger field to be the problem I just looked at your variable name of lcKeyValue wherein I believe L=local, c=character, and KeyValue = the name Since my index field is an integer I was wondering if liKeyValue would be correct instead, but it doesn't work...

    Opening a form with a selected record from a grid

    Geoff I think you are correct. However both the grid and the form it calls are bound to the same table. And when I try to point to a record by highlighting it in the grid, I cant figure out how to make that record show up in the "contact" form. I worked on the parameter deal and all it did was...

    Opening a form with a selected record from a grid

    Ok let me back up for a second. The form "contact" is the data entry form or the "called form." The form "change" is the form with the grid or the "calling form." in the called form, "contacts" I have made a new property called "firstname" and in the init for the "contacts" form I have...
