What is the code that runs when you click the "quick call button"? What is
the code that runs in the popup form's Close event and in the "done entering data" button on the popup form? -- Ken Snell MS ACCESS MVP "Jennifer P" wrote in message ... The form that is open is my Daily dispatch Log. It is used to track all calls. However if i am in the middle of a call I want to press the quick call button and fill in 5 fields and then close the form. The pop up form opens to the next availble record in the Daily Dispatch Log. The problem is when I close the pop up form the Daily Dispatch log goes to record 1 and does not show that I have added a record. I need it to requery the Daily Dispatch Log so I can see the call I added with the Quick Call form. Now if I close the Daily Dispatch Log and reopen it, it shows the record I added.

It will help us here if you identify which code is in which form...
I am assuming that CmdQuickCall_Click is in the main form (your Daily Dispatch Log form); and that all the other code is from the popup form (your QuickCall form)? Is this correct? What error message do you get from the Me.Requery step? Are you in the middle of entering/editing a record on the Daily Dispatch Log form when you click the QuickCall button? It appears that you use the QuickCall form to enter a new record that is to be displayed on the Daily Dispatch Log form after it's entered. Is the Daily Dispatch Log form filtered in any way? Does the QuickCall form have the same filter so that the entry you make would show on the Daily Dispatch Log form if it had already been there? Note that the Me.Requery step will indeed put the form back at the "first" record. It appears that you want the form to "move" to the newly entered record (the one entered via the QuickCall form)? If yes, it'll be necessary for the Daily Dispatch Log form to know what the primary key value is for the newly entered form. This can be done if you don't close QuickCall form, but instead make it invisible (after saving its current record), let the code in the Daily Dispatch Log form read the primary key value from the QuickCall form, and then have the Daily Dispatch Log form close the QuickCall form. Then the Daily Dispatch Log form should requery itself (Me.Requery) and then move to that new record: Private Sub CmdQuickCall_Click() Dim PrimKey as Variant On Error GoTo Err_CmdQuickCall_Click Dim stDocName As String Dim stLinkCriteria As String DoCmd.OpenForm "QuickCall", , , , , acDialog PrimKey = Forms("QuickCall").Controls("NameOfControlBoundToP rimaryKeyField").Value Me.Requery With Me.RecordsetClone .MoveFirst ' this code step is used if the primary key is a numeric field .FindFirst "NameOfPrimaryKeyField = " & PrimKey ' this code step is used if the primary key is a text field ' .FindFirst "NameOfPrimaryKeyField = '" & PrimKey & "'" ' this code step is used if the primary key is a date field ' .FindFirst "NameOfPrimaryKeyField = #" & PrimKey & "#" If .NoMatch = True Then MsgBox "cannot find the newly entered record" Else Me.Bookmark = .Bookmark End If End With Exit_CmdQuickCall_Click: Exit Sub Err_CmdQuickCall_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_CmdQuickCall_Click End Sub Then the close event procedure in QuickCall would be changed to this: Private Sub CmdCloseForm_Click() On Error GoTo Err_CmdCloseForm_Click Me.Visible = False Exit_CmdCloseForm_Click: Exit Sub Err_CmdCloseForm_Click: MsgBox Err.Description Resume Exit_CmdCloseForm_Click End Sub Also, this procedure seems to have a redundant step: Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) DoCmd.OpenForm "QuickCall", , , , , acDialog DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec End Sub It should be changed to this: Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer) DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acNewRec End Sub -- Ken Snell MS ACCESS MVP "Jennifer P" wrote in message ...
