hi,

i have 2 forms. On the first form i have a list-box that the user makes a
selection from. When this selection has been made, the second form should
load with info regarding the selection made. So on the 2nd form i have two
txt boxes i want to set the first txt box to equal =
FORMS!FirstForm!selectionFromListBox...it works, but i get a compiler error
saying that FirstForm cannot be found. I'm assuming this has something to do
with the active form or public/private declarations...but i dont know how to
fix it! Please HELP!

thanks Alot....

Both forms need to be open at the same time for the
reference to work properly. If you don't want the 1st to
show, hide it.
