Populating Form Text Boxes from Access Table

I've built a VB6 form to enter data and store it in an Access 2002 db and have that working. The form made use of cbo and txt controls. I have created another form, modified the cbos and txts all to txts so that when someone searches for data by a contract ID# from a search screen, the saved data for that rst will populate the appropriate txts. I've set the datasource and datafield properties for each txt to the db source and field, respectively. I can't figure out how to call the rst by ID# and am unsure how to make the db fields map to the form txts, or do the properties do that automatically? Any help appreciated. --Ed
