I have been trying to get a Default value for customerID in my data base have went through video 4 times and do not think I'm missing a step. My problem is I have set the default value in properties to: Forms![ContactF]![CustomerID]and it does change to the right person in data base when I click on button in customerF but the new record does not have the current person in new field like it shows in your video. Thanks
Reply from Alex Hedley:
Add a new unbound textbook to the form and set the Default value to the =[Forms]![ContactF]![CustomerID] Add a new record and does it match the CustomerID you currently have Open?
Would you not want it to be [Forms]![CustomerF]![CustomerID] So you are taking the CustomerID from the Current Customer that is open.
