VBA code required I think

I have used your invoicing template and adapted it for my service business. I have created a button on the main menu to open the customer form to add a new customer. Once the customer is added, how can I make the appointments button (in your database the orders button) open a new appointment (in your dattabase new order) update the customer field to the new customer I have just inputed so I can add appointment details?

I have already gave you an answer here. If that isn't what you're looking for please post some images of your form so we can visually see what you need.

Note: Posting the same question in multiple forums won't lead to solving your issue any quicker.

Go to default value of the combo box and set it to Forms!CustomerF!CustomerID

Thank you...That seems to work. I have also added a me.refresh to the customer FirstName and the customer LastName fields so when I click the appointments button it updates the customer form before opening the appointment form.
