AcDialog Problem

Hi

This may well have a simple answer but it eludes me as to what it is.

I have one form open from which a second one is shown to the user. This second form is set up with pop up and model set to yes and is opened in code as

DoCmd.openForm "frm_swap_results",,,,,acDialog

I need to populate this second form
e.g. Forms!frm_swap_results![WID1]=[dwdA]

In the above [dwdA] is a static variable defined in the first form and [WID1] is an unbound variable on the second form.

Unfortunately I keep getting the error message that access can't find the form frm_swap_results even though it is open on screen.

I would appreciate some guidance as to what I am doing wrong. helpAppreciate
