Can someone please tell me why Access would format
differently on a Client PC than on the Host that the form
originated from. This happens on all client PC's. I cant
figure it out...please help.

Format "what" differently? If you're talking about the format of numbers
and dates you need to realize that any of the "Named" formats like
"General", "Short Date", etc., are influenced by the Regional Settings in
Windows. If you want consistency despite differences on these settings
then you need to use explicit format strings like "mm-dd-yyyy" or "#.00".
 
A little more description please. What is formatting differently? How is it being run,
Terminal Services, Citrix, or network share?
