    Combo box in form set to "yes" opens a new data entry form with data from form 1

    I have a form that users enter new contracts into. If a user selects yes on the subrecipient combo box it should open the form titled "subrecipients". I want the contract number field of my subrecipient box to populate with the data from the "enter contract data" form. All of the fields on my subrecipient form should then update my subrecipient table. I can't get my "contract no" field from the "enter contract data" form to populate into my "subrecipient form". Do any of you have any suggestions on if this is possible?

    It's possible but have you considered a form/subform arrangement instead?
