Is it possible to display two copies of the same form but with different records on the screen at the same time.

If this is possible - Can it be done if the form has a sub form.

I have a problem with duplicate records - not in the normal sense but because (females in particular keep on changing their surname and address and it is difficult to keep track. When I identify that a duplicate account exists I would like tyo be able to call up both forms on screen at the same time and have a check box at the end of each field on both forms. I could then write VBA code to save the checked items and discard the unchecked items. The coding would also need to reassign the sub form entries the primary key of the form that is being retained. Sounds complex but I'm sure it can be done.

Anyone any ideas
 
It is a little bit hard to to understand that you need two copy of the same form on the screen, but...
If you realy need to, you'll have to make a copy of your forms. Say you have Form_MyForm with Form_MySubForm, create a copy called Form_MyForm2 and Form_MySubForm2 and call both copies when needed.
But I think there should be a much better way to do than calling two forms...???
