I am trying to set a field in a form in Access 2003 when it's loaded but I get an error message saying it can't find the form. Can you please tell me what I'm doing wrong? This worked fine in Access97.

dim url as string
url = Forms!frmMain!Path.Value

Hope someone can help. Thanks.

You are certain that when the code is run, the FrmMain is open?
