Still learning forms

[powerprinting]

Lots to learn when dealing with forms I am still finding out.
I have basic form (myform1) which contains read only data from a simple name,address,city,st,zip database. I placed a command button on the form called "edit" to access myform2. I have no tags set in the data properties. The command button "edit" is simply do form myform2;thisform.refresh.
When edit is pushed the edit window appears but the beginning of the file is always called up, not the name and address that was appearing on form1. What setting or command am I missing in the edit control box? I know this is very, very basic stuff. Bear with me and Happy Holidays to all!

Open the data environment of the second form and make sure it is empty.

Foxfire,

I did do that. It still goes to top of file.

Never mind.... somehow I did something right (I have to figure out what) and now it works. Thanks. Someday I might even be good at this... LOL.

Will,

Someday I might even be good at this

Don't get discouraged. We've all been through the same learning process.
