referring to a variable

[diversoln]

I'm filling in a text box on one form and I'd like to refer to it in an event procedure on another form, how do I do this?

Let's say the variable is temperature. When referring to the temperature on the Data_Collection Form, I use Me!temperature but when I try to refer to that variable on a later form I either get a message that the control doesn't exist or the field doesn't exist. How do I refer to it's value on another form?

Thanks.
