I am using a continuous form for the users to keep track
of their notes on topic (or subjects) when dealing with a
client. I placed the clientcode and the topic boxes into
the header of the continuous form. The client code shows
when a new entry is made as it is linked to another box on
the main form. It is the topic box that does not stay
filled in. It is causing the user to type the info in
each time they go to make a new entry on the continuous
form. I thought the header info stayed. The topic does
show if the user goes back to the first entry they made
when they typed in the topic. Is there a way to keep the
topic box the same for each entry without the user
entering it each time? If the user has a new topic with
the client, they would start all over again with an add
new.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

What is the structure of your Tables? How are they related? And what
are the Recordsources of the mainform and subform, and the
ControlSource of this textbox?
