Select record from a different form.

I'll try to explain my situation as clearly as possible, but its a tad
convoluted.

Primary form in question is the Contract Administration form.
Secondary form is a Find Contract form (pop up modal) that is opened
via a command button on the Contract Admin form.
There is a sub form on the Find Contract form (Find Contract Results)
that list in continuous mode all contracts that satisfy dynamic multi-
field search criteria entered by the user at run time.

Both the Primary Contract Administration form and the Find Contract
Results sub form on the secondary form contain ContractNumber and
ContratID fields. Both are unique.

I want a button on the Find Contract Result sub form set up so that
when I click it, the current record on the sub form is brought up in
the primary Contract Administration form. (More or less a 'Select
thsi Contract' button). I don't think this is very difficult (famous
last words) and I may well be just having a severe brain fart. Can
someone please point me towards code that will perform this function?

Thanks!

In my form I have a master table and a details table linked 1xM. I can search through the whole parent table but I also like to be able to search through the child table fields to find parent records. Should I design a new form for this or can I somehow make this work in the same form. Thanks in advance, john

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
