    New Record Problem (Carrying over previous search values)

    Hi All,



    I have two search fields in a form (txtbox)

    When I go to a new record, the values of those search fields are carried over to the new record.

    How can I make sure that the values for the search fields are not carried over, and I am able to make a fresh blank NEW record ( did I emphasize that enough )


    I have tried setting the search values to null when starting a new record however, I am unable to see those values when scrolling through previous records.. I would like to have search values populated for its respective record and not disappear when the user looks through previous records.

    Example


    FORM:

    Car License # (Search Field) -- will populate the car make , model, and year
    Buyer
    Value

    when I click new record:
    Car License # is blank .. however the new record carries over the Car make, model, and year of the previous record's Car License number, until I type in a new Car Lic #
    Buyer is blank
    Value is blank

    I want search values (car make, model, and year) to be bank when creating a new record.
    I want the user to be able to look at previous records and view respective populated values (car make, model, and year)


    Hope this made sense enough for someone to help!
