I hope my title adequately conveys the gist of my question.

I have a form that merely takes the user to a second form from which the user can perform designated tasks. The second form has a "go back" button that returns the user to the Main introductory form.

When I "go back" and then go forward again, the second form still has data left over from the initial input. I want the second form to be refreshed (i.e. open and clean and ready for a new task).

Is there a way to do what I want to do in this regard? Thanks in advance for whatever advice is forthcoming.
 
have u tried Me.refresh on the On Open of forms properties
 
Thanks for your help but your suggestion did not work. Maybe the problem is my explanation - the main form allows the user to select among three (3) choices.

Once the user makes a selection, the second form allows him/her to use a combo box to run one of several reports. This second form also allows the user to return to the main form either prior or after the selected report has been run.

Once back to the Main form, assume the user wants to run another report - when he/she opens the second form, the old selection remains in the combo box - I want that combo box to be clear of a selection when the form is opened the second time.

Does this help?
 
Sorry folks - operator error on my part. All I had to do was close the second form and, then, when I reopened it with the Main form it would be "clean".
