form - populate several fields before display, and on repetitive use

[L Mehl]

Hello --

A form adds records for an account and an entry date pre-selected by the
user.

I use the Load event to get those 2 fields to appear in the form when it is
first displayed.

Problem is: after saving the first record and displaying a blank form for
entry of the next record, the form is already Loaded, so that code code not
work, and the account and entry fields are blank. Putting the code in
Current, GotFocus, BeforeInsert does not work.

Can someone tell me which event should hold the code to populate those two
fields for each use of the form?

Thanks for any guidance.
