passing variables

[kevcri]

I have a form for login which contains a control whose contents I need several times throughout a session.
I believe that what I want to do is save the contents as a global variable, how do I do that?
and once I have it saved as a global variable how do I access it from a form

thanks for all yor help

Rather than creating global variables which will become unset if any error occurs, hide the logon form rather than closing it. If you do that, the form fields will be available to your entire application. You reference them as:

Forms!YourFormName!YourControlName
