I'm having some trouble getting popup forms to work properly. I have a main form that contains 4 fields that I want to fill in by using a series of 4 popup forms that I initiate by clicking a button. Each popup form has a save button that will save the data and open up the next popup form in the series. Each of the popup forms have a single combo box that looks at various tables to populate date into the main form. The problem I'm having is getting the series of popup forms to update the only the current main form record. No matter what I do, I haven't had any luck. Help, please!

Why do you need popup forms? Why not have the comboboxes in the main form and bind them to the fields in the table?

Well, the series of popups will be defined by the user. I'm designing a structure that will point to different popup forms depending on the input from the last. In actuality, I'll have more like 15 popup forms (If user selects A in popup1, it will go to popup5. If I select B in popup 5, I will go to popup 8, etc.). Does that make sense?
You can do the exact same thing using one form by using Cascading Combo Boxes.
Thanks! I'll give it a shot and see how it goes.

Let us know how you get along.

In the last line:
"WHERE [ID]=" & Me!Company
how can I have it look for text instead of a number?

In these cases you need quotes. - "WHERE [ID] = '" & Me!Company & "'"

- "WHERE [ID] = '" & Me!Company & "'"
Thanks, that was the one thing I was missing. It works great.

Here's my HTML code. What I'm trying to do is when the button is
pushed to refresh the popup window information, I want the popup to
return to the front. The way my code is now, when refreshed the popup
stays in the background confusing the users. Thanks for your help.

Hi to all,
I am displaying a list of records in a subform which is embedded in a
popup main form (in order to ensure that users close the form when
leaving it).
It seems to be impossible to delete a record in this subform.
When I switched modal off and tried to delete a record from the list,
I deleted a record on another form (below the popup form).

I am bringing up a popup which has a couple of fields that the user enters.
I fill the hidden fields then submit and close the popup which then reverts
back to my main form, which retrieves the hidden vars and does the database
operation. Seems straight forward enough but I have run into a few stumbling
blocks including submitting then closing the popup and reverting control
back to the main form to pick up the variables.

Hi,
I have a 'main' form called frmIssues which has a subform control
(named linkIssuesDrug) containing the subform sfrmLink_Issues_Drugs.
A control button on the main form opens a pop-up form which allows me
to edit the record in the subform. What I want to happen is for
subform with the new edits to be updated on the main form when I close
the popup. I'm sure this is a very small bit of code in the the 'On
close' event for the popup...

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,...
