I currently have one form which gets its id number from a previous form. However when i add a new record the id number is not carried over. Is there a way which i can get the id number to carry over for each new record
thank

By far the simplest way is to make the second form a Subform of the
first, using the ID as the master/child link field.

If you really need separate forms, you can pass the ID in the OpenArgs
argument of the OpenForm method, and use the second form's Open event
to set the Default property of the ID field.
