Simple code... but... copy & Paste

Experts,
Please share some light on this simple thing... I am so preplexed.
Bascially, I am trying to copy Product Name from an open form and
paste it to the Product Name field in Form2.
Dim ProdNm As String

ProdNm = Me.[ProductName]

DoCmd.OpenForm "Form2", , , , acFormAdd

Me![PurchaseOrdersS ubform].Form![ProductName] = ProdNm
What did I code wrong? Why is this not working?

Thanks in advance.

Me![PurchaseOrdersS ubform].Form![ProductName] = ProdNm

should be:

Forms!Form2.Pro ductName.Value = ProdNm

Assuming that ProductName is the name of the control in Form2 that you
want to paste the value to.

You could also pass the value to Form2 in the OpenArgs portion of the
OpenForm command, and then have code in the FormLoad event of Form2 to
put it in the textbox you want.

Apologies for the basic nature of this question but I'm very inexperienced in Java. I've been given the task of disabling the cut/copy/paste functions (Ctrl-X,C & V) in our java dialogs and although some of the Bean-based ones have cut, copy and paste functions which can be overloaded, other things which use JTable, JList and the like seem less straightforward. So I was wondering if there was any standard way of tackling this problem?

I have looked extensively, and I have been unable to find commands that allow a C++ program to manipulate other files. How do I make C++ do simple things like copy and past files, and navigate directories? Also, where is a good command reference that I can use so I dont have to post these annoying questions? RW

Hello All I am creating an ASP page. There are a list of filename and checkbox next to it. When user checked all the documents they want and click ADD TO CLIPBOARD button. All filepaths will be copied into clipboard and then they can right-click -> paste into MS Outlook as attachments. How can I use clipboardData.setData function to do that? I saw a lot of examples they are just copy and paste text.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
