Pass value from an unbound object on one form to another form that is already open

[jpkeller55]

I am sure this is possible but not sure how to go about this. I have a form that has a memo field with values in a particular format. For example: 11111-2222-33; 44444-5555-00 etc... This memo field could contain one or many values. I have a pop-up window that displays when a user double clicks this memo field that provides an input field that has an input mask of AAAAA\-AAAA\-AA;0; so the user will enter the values in the correct format. On this pop-up form, I have an unbound field that caputures the the entries. I would like for the values captured in this unbound field to be copied to the original memo field in the open form.



The original open form is: frmQuestionDetail
the field name is: NDC

the popup form is: frmNDCentry
and the field is: NDCupdate

So essentially, I am trying to copy the value from NDCupdate from frmNDCentry to the NDC field in the open form frmQuestionDetail.

Thanks for any help.

Figured this out...thanks anyway.

Basically

DestinationReference = SourceReference

with the appropriate form references:

Forms Refer to Form and Subform properties and controls

If you want to add to the existing data in the destination, this type of thing:

DestinationReference = DestinationReference & " " & SourceReference

Looks.....like......I.....type.....too.....slowly.
