[AccessD] Capture That Record Number

That is what I did, but sometimes when I do the requery, then the record
that I change eliminates it from the recordsource and when I tell it to
go to that specific task number, it is not there.  So I thought it would
be nice to go to about the same place as before, or the record after the
one that was deleted.  There must be a place that the navigator bar gets
its count from.

You don't.  Access doesn't use record numbers in the sense that dBase
does.  It uses unique keys and the record "numbers" are just position
indicators within the recordset.  Those numbers can change after a
requery.
  
Instead, capture the unique key for that record and store it in a
variable.  Then find that key again in the form's recordsetclone after
the requery and set the form's bookmark to the recordsetclone's
bookmark.  Hey, presto.

I am an active puppy today.  How do you catch the record number on a
continuous form so one can return to that record number after a requery
is done?  I can see only the higher minds are working today.
