Updating on form field to another form field - 12/21/2007 12:57:58   
Hi All:

I'm having a problem updated on field in one form with the contents of a field in another form.

In the Main Form (frmntwnar), I have a field called CurrNotes and a Button (Add New Status). When the button is pushed it opens up the second form (Frmhiststat - which they do not want as a subform). There are three fields within the second form. ID (corresponding to the ID in main form - which is autonumbered), LastDateUp - double-clicking in this field adds the current date, and HSCurrNotes where the newest update is added. There is a close button which when its pushed, I want the code to save the entry in the second form's table (tblhiststat - which it does), clear the CurrNotes field in the main form (which it does) and copy the newest entry from the second form's HSCurrNotes into the main form field CurrNotes (which it doesn't).

This is currently the code I have now:

Private Sub Close_Histstat_Form_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Close_Histstat_Form_Click


'Before the close, take the most current record and place it into the NAR form
'under Last Status

Dim OldStatus As String
Dim NARCurrNotes As String


Form_frmntwnar!CurrNotes = OldStatus
Form_frmhiststat!HSCurrNotes = NARCurrNotes


If LastDateUp = Date$ Then
OldStatus = Chr(10) & NARCurrNotes


End If

DoCmd.CLOSE

Exit_Close_Histstat_Form_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_Close_Histstat_Form_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_Close_Histstat_Form_Click

End Sub

Any help is appreciated. I need to resolve this issue right after Christmas and have all the documentation and program ready to release on Jan 3rd.

Form_frmhiststat!HSCurrNotes = NARCurrNotes


If LastDateUp = Date$ Then
OldStatus = Chr(10) & NARCurrNotes


End If

DoCmd.CLOSE





This is what I think the logic should be and re-arranged them accordingly:

Private Sub Close_Histstat_Form_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Close_Histstat_Form_Click
    
    Dim OldStatus As String
    Dim NARCurrNotes As String
     
    NARCurrNotes = Form_frmhiststat!HSCurrNotes 
    OldStatus= Form_frmntwnar!CurrNotes

    If LastDateUp = Date$ Then
         OldStatus = Chr(10) & NARCurrNotes
            
    End If

   Form_frmntwnar!CurrNotes = OldStatus

    DoCmd.CLOSE
