Copy fields in form to populate blank record

18
I have the main form where employees enter "issues". Some issues have fields that are the same. My fields are

Issue ID (auto)
Product
Entered BY
Issue Type
Priority
Request from
Status
Assigned to
Model
Description

Is there any way to have a check box next to each field and also have a copy button, that would copy and paste into a new blank form.

SUppose I want to copy product, issue type, priority, and status. I would check those boxes and hit "Copy". I need this to copy just those fields and paste them in the new blank form when a "paste" button is pressed.

Or when the "Copy" button is pressed, have it open a blank form and automatically populate the fields selected.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Basically, you could have a Command Button that opens the new form.

In the code it would set the relevant controls of the new form to match those of the existing form only when the associated CheckBox is set (True).
