    Text box populate with previous form items

    This is my first posting and an attempt at setting up a simple database.

    I have seven text boxes on a form for data entry. I have a number of documents to enter into the data base, each document has seven pieces of information that need to be recorded. The seven pieces of document information can be very similar, to the previous entries, and I am trying to work out how to repeat the previous data from the previous form, so that only minor changes are needed to speed data entry.

    I have looked at various solutions online but can't seem to follow or understand how to do it for seven text boxes on the same form.

    Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

    Many thanks.
