I used the equation builder to set on textbox on a form equal to another one
and no matter how I write the equation or what the value for the source cell
is I get a value of -1 in my new textbox except when the textbox is blank
then my new box is blank as well. Ive tried code as simple as [textbox1] =
[textbox2] and to much much more complicated. No matter what I do this is
what I get back. How do I make it post the value that is listed in the other
textbox?

textbox1 should only need to use the expression:
=textbox2

What you tried compares textbox1 to textbox2, which will be
either True, False or Null
