Use form as a selector to enter data into another form.

[swavemeisterg]

I have a form for users to input specimen data each time a new one is created. One of the fields is 90% of the time one of the same 4 or 5 values depending on the material, while the other 10% of the time it's unique.

Basically what I want is a "Presets" button that the user can click on which will open a small form with those four or five common materials. When the user clicks on one of those, the value corresponding to that material will be entered into the field on the original form.

I can easily make this second form, I just need help pushing the data back into the original form. I have no idea how to do this.

Any suggestions?

You could modify this:

to use a combo or listbox and pass the selected value back.
