Grabbing id on a network

[CY]

I am working on a database that somebody else created. This person used a
LOT of VB that I am not very familiar with but I am hoping I can solve this
problem without having to resort to hiring a VB person.

There is a form that is using a query to populate a subform, and the query
grabs the primary key from the customer that is selected in the main form,
if you get what I mean. So the query criteria is:

[forms]![frm_find_cust]![cid]

They experienced a problem last week where two people had the same form open
on two networked computers and on the save, both records contained the ID
grabbed from only one computer, when they actually were working on two
different customers. I think its probably because there is no specification
anywhere to use the current computer. Can you do that anywhere on a query
or do you have to specify that in VB?

I hope that this makes sense, I am grabbing in the dark a bit here.

Any ideas?
