I am creating a form for data entry. I use a Macro to copy data into variables that I can then drop (or paste) into the fields on my form one by one. I already can do this with Macro Express. I can locate the fields and drop the information from the variables into the fields. What I was wondering, is if there is a way to copy all the data, from the variables, into a text box or copy box? Or if there was a secondary form or template that I can use while using the existing form that I developed. The existing form I am using has the form view on top and the column view on the bottom. From the copy box or secondary form I could choose which pieces of the data I actually want to copy into the form fields. Like I said I can already do the locate and drop with Macro Express but I was wondering if Access maybe had a way of doing this.

Thanks,

Bob
 
What i get of this hazy discription is that you are trying to create a data entry module that copies data from somewhere (another application maybe) to a form in your ms access application via a third party application and wondering if you can lose the third party application and just use access , am i correct ? if so , yes you can but you will suffer a bit by useing SendKeys function while providing the exact sequance scenario for copying and pasting (remember to index tab your controls and then count your tabs :) ) good luck mate

Right you are.
