How do I grab data fron uncommitted record on form?

[Klopper]

This should be a no-brainer for someone who knows what they are doing:

I have a form which always only has a single record.
I need to grab the data entered into a text box and then close the form.
This causes a problem as the record has not yet been saved (I think 'committed' is the proper term) to the underlying table.

What is the best way to explicitly save the data without going to a new record?

Thanks

docmd.save

or docmd.runcommand accmdsave

Docmd.save didn't work but Docmd.Runcommand Accmdsave did!

Thanks
