NotGood,
I assume you mean that the continuous form only shows certain core data, and
you want to open up another form, with the full details of the continuous
form's current record. Does that sound right? So the button is in the
Detail section of the continuous form? You will want the button to have a
macro assigned to its Click event, and the macro will use an OpenForm
action, nominating the name of the full detail form. And the Where
Condition argument of the OpenForm action will need to reference the
field(s) that identify the record you want, which will most likely be the
Primary Key field from the forms' underlying table. A typical Where
Condition argument looks something like this:
[YourID]=[Forms]![NameOfContinuousForm]![YourID]
Hope that helps clarify.

I have a continuous form with a button on it. What I’m trying to do is
when
the button is clicked open the record of the button that was clicked. I’ve
been playing, but the more I play the worse it gets. Would someone point
me
in the right direction?
