I need to link a form to another form. I was trying to link them using a particular field. It turns out that I need to two fields to be present to get the correct form. Is there a way to make a macro to look for two fields instead of only one?

I'm not sure I understand. Perhaps you should explain in simple English not using data base terms what you are attempting to accomplish. Examples would be beneficial.
I'm making an inventory database. When I issue equipment with a serial number, there is no problem because a particular equipment item is being issued and returned. I also have equipment that needs to be issued and returned without a serial number. That item has only one entry in the equipment table. That same item is issued to whomever with no problem. In order to return the item, I have a macro linked to the item. Since it is issued to several people, I get many of the same equipment and I need to scroll through them all to find the one issued to that person. I was wondering if I can link that macro not only to the item, but also to the person it was issued to. That way, I get the exact one that needs to be returned.
Disregard on this. I'm blaming this brain fart on the holidays. I was trying to locate a record using the foreign keys.
I did the same a long time ago.
Now I use "_PK" as a suffix on the PK name field name and "_FK" as a suffix on foreign key fields. Much easier to tell PK fields from FK fields.
