Buttons to link forms

[1987nac1987]

Hi, I'm just wanting to create a series of buttons using the wizard on some forms I have, but for some reason clicking the radial button
'open form and find specific data to display' only returns the headings from the target form and displays nothing from the form i'm currently looking at? Why is this?
I can't then match up any keys to jump to the right record in the target form?

Link your form with the table (and the fields in the form with the fields in the table).
"Record Soruce" preperties (for the form), and "Control Source" properties (for the fields).

By the way, the two forms are based upon the same table (it's near-enough a flat database)
One form deals with half of the fields, the next form deals with the other half.
Perhaps that might have something to do with it? Essentially I need to match the primary key on the same table for two forms.

I'm obviously extremely thick (which is why I joined this forum)!

The control sources/record sources all weighed up, or at least they did to my eyes. I deleted the forms, started again and it's working now?

Why do you have 2 forms on the 1 table ???
It can indicate that yor table not normalised well.
