When I am adding records to a database and each record is unique by
the Serial Number. I would like to step through my code adding
records unless the Serial Number already exists in the database. If
the record already exits, then I would like to pop up a form, in
pop-up, dialog mode. The form will ask if the user wants to make
changes to the existing record and go back to the form and not make
any changes. The code stops because the pop up form is "dialog" but I
want to return to a certain line in the code depending which button
the user selected on the pop-up form or somehow react to which button
the user picked on the pop-up form not just return and continue
processing the code where it left off.

Remove the X in the upper right of your dialog (that's the CloseButton
property of the form), so the user must select one of your buttons.
In the code behind those buttons, don't close the dialog -
set its Visible property to False instead.
Code execution will resume on your main form right after your
DoCmd.OpenForm.
You can check your dialog's ActiveControl property to see which button was
clicked, and branch accordingly.

If the user clicks on the "MakeChange s" Button or the

I think I'd write the code more like this:
select case Forms!myPopupDi alogForm.Active Control.name

rs.update

OK, I got the code below to work, but, let's say the codes jumps to
the MakeChangesLine : and you edit and update the record THEN the code
continues along and skips over the DontMakeChanges Line: line and then
executes the next line of code which is form.undo
I don't understand how to use the "goto" statement, is there a way to
write this so it doesn't execute the form.undo line?
-----------------------
Dim ctlCurrentContr ol As Control
Set ctlCurrentContr ol = Forms!DisplayIt emInformationFo rm.ActiveContro l
If ctlCurrentContr ol.Name = "ChangeDataButt on" Then
GoTo MakeChangesLine :
If ctlCurrentContr ol.Name = "DontChangeData Button" Then
GoTo DontMakeChanges Line:
MakeChangesLine :
this is where I edit and update the record

The answer to "Should I use <anything> instead of GoTo?" is generally "yes",
with the possible exception of error handling.

THANKS !! It worked like a charm! When I typed the Select Case line
and I got to the period after "ActiveControl" , I thought I was only
able to use the choices presented in the VB Editor drop down box, but
even though "name" was not one of the options, it worked fine.

Hello!
When exactly is it important or advisable to use this form load event
handler compare to using the C-tor.
For example here I create an event handler called dataBoundGridForm that is

this.Load += new System.EventHandler(this.dataBoundGridForm_Load);
I mean if I compare form load with the C-tor I think that it's enough to put
