I need to call two popup forms in succession. If I place them one after the other in the calling form then the second call creates an error. What is the standard way of doing this?
 
What event calls the first form and what event calls the second form?
 
They are both called from onclick in a command button. I could have two command butoons but that makes the user do unnecessary work.
 
this shouldnt give you an error, i dont think

just try popping up the second form - do you still get the error?
 
I can call the second popup form from another command button just by pasting the call across and it works just fine.
Here are the calls

"DoCmd.OpenForm "ThingTypePopForm", acNormal, , , , acWindowNormal
DoCmd.OpenForm "ThingSubTypePopForm", acNormal, , SubTypePopFormFilter, , acWindowNormal"
 
the second call creates an error

what is the error number and error description?
 
OK, I have wasted everyone's time. The error was completely unrelated and not obvious. The two calls actually work fine. Thank you for helping I am back on track.
