How to clear a search form ?

[Trojnfn]

I have a search form where I enter a value and click on a command button. All records that correspond to that value are displayed (continuous form). Works fine.

However, when I exit the form and then go back in, the data from the previous search still populates the screen. The search value/field is blank, but all the previous records are still displayed. How can I clear those values everytime I enter the form (or exit the form) ?

Are you using Filter and FilterOn in code to perform the search? Show the procedure code for analysis. How are you exiting the form - with the X button?

Another thing to consider is if you are using the filter but if you are using code to close the form and have selected acSaveYes instead of acSaveNo (like you should) that can cause filters to be saved.
