"I have what seems like should be a fairly simple task. I
want to open a form from which I want to select a record
to write to the calling form in a new record. Is there a
simple, straightforward way of doing this? I have been
down several alleys and wound up frustrated, and it
doesn't seem it should be this difficult."

Thanks.
 
Good evening Darrell

This is a simple forms reference problem.
Please remember that both forms must be open in order for this to work.

The general expression for referencing forms and controls is as follows:

forms!MyFirstForm!MyOtherForm.Form!ControlOnMyOtherForm.
