Opening a new form, with the same record ID

[simon123]

Hi there folks, please go easy with a beginner.

In my database, you can open a Client record and create an Enquiry in a form called frmEnquiriesNew – what I want, is a Save button, which closes the current form and opens the same record in a different form, frmEnquiries (which has a bit more functionality). The point is that users can't access all the features of frmEnquiries until they have added the basic information and saved the record.



I have added the below code to a save button but when I use it, it just opens the frmEnquiries form with a completely different record. Is it obvious where I am going wrong here?

Private Sub cmdSaveEnquiry_Click()
Dim EnqIDPass As Integer
 
        EnqIDPass = Me.Enquiry_ID.Value
       
       
        DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmEnquiriesNew"
        DoCmd.OpenForm "frmEnquiries", , "[Enquiry ID]=" & EnqIDPass
           
End Sub

Thank you for your help

Simon
