pass combobox selection to form

[dcollins]

This should be very simple but I can't seem to figure it out. I have a startup form in which I have 2 comboboxes. I want the user to select a choice from each box and then pass those choices to the next form which is a data entry form. Users will be inputting several records but those two choices should remain constant and saved with each record until the db is closed. I am using a global variable defined in a separate module but I can't seem to get the correct column in the combobox transferred. If I use a textbox instead of combobox, it transfers the value to the next form but then I can't get it to carry that amount to every record thereafter. I tried the autoFillNewRecord function but it doesn't seem to work in this instance (I've used it elsewhere with success). If this makes sense, can anyone give me a clue as I am clearly clueless.
