Sending date to query problem

I have a number of queries, running one after the other, which do quite a
complex calculation. A text box on a form provides the date for this routine.

I have another routine I wish to do and it happens that the final query in the
above routine contains the data I need. However I don`t want to fire this
routine from the same form as before.

I could make copies and rename the queries I suppose but is there a way I could
enter the date in a new form, maybe open the original form, minimised ? send the
date to that text box then run the routine ?

Hope that makes sense. Suspect there is a simple way to do this but I`m missing
it

Perhaps you could run your first set of queries from a button on a different
form than your date form. The first line of code would be:
DoCmd.OpenForm "NameOfForm ToEnterDate",,, ,,acDialog

<Code to run queries>

DoCmd.OpenForm "NameOfSecondFo rm"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "NameOfFirstFor m"

<Code to run other routine>

DoCmd.Close acForm, "NameOfForm ToEnterDate"
DoCmd.Close acForm, "NameOfFirstFor m"

In the Date form, you would need the following code in the AfterUpdate event of
the Date textbox:
Me.Visible = False

What do you mean by "routine"? If you are trying to use the same reports,
then how does it matter that it comes from a new form? The results will be
the same unless you are changing the queries in the reports somehow.

Yes, and the key to it working is to make the popup form not visible so the date
is available to the second form.

Good luck!
