Pass variable value from closing form

[geralf]

Hi,

I have an unbound form (pop-up) which I want to use as a input form for another form. The users enters data to the pop-up, and when exiting/closing the pop-up, I'd like the value from the pop-up to be available in the form the pop-up was opened from. I know I can use a public variable, but I'm curious to know if there's an other/better way to do this.

Ie. - the OpenForm of the DoCmd object has an OpenArgs to pass variables to the form to be opened.

Thanks in advance.

I typically put an invisible field on the receiving form, and push that value from the closing form to that invisible field.

Thanks for your reply FoFa

However, I think I'll stick with my current publick variable solution, because I've got to many controls on the form already.

Thanks for your reply thogh.
