copied form

[skate]

now this may sound silly, but I had a form that could search for items based on values entered by the user and displayed in a listbox. It works perfectly, so I thought I would do a "save as" and make a second record searching form very similiar except for the minor changes in labeling and table source and field names, etc. but it doesn't work! This completely puzzles me because it should function exactly as the other form, but when I try to do a search (enter text) my listbox goes blank. I've checked that all the labeling/names have been changed. Why???

Hard to tell, but is it calling any VBA code or a query that post back to that listbox and it is looking for the other form? It really sounds like something is looking for a form by another name.
OR
your criteria is looking for it's value on the original form, not finding it and returning no data because of that.
