How to display data from one form to another

[rexb]

Hi,

Can somebody show me how to display data's from one form to another.

What I would like to do is when a user clicks a button he will be brought to a 2nd form and in that 2nd form are information (not all) from the 1st form. The 1st form is in a tab page and the 2nd is just a form on its own with master and child link.



Thanks in advance.

I tried it but it gives me a compile error message

How about posting what you put in. There could easily be a typo somewhere.

Your CommandButton was on the MainForm but the referenced TextBox was on a SubForm. Try this one.

Thank you so much RuralGuy. Those are the things that I don't really know off. Please bear with me cause for sure I will continue posting if I find stumbling blocks on my way to developing this database.

Again thank you.

Glad I could help.
