I'm not sure what you're trying to do. Please explain what you are attempting to do. To me, I don't know why you would put "Stop" at the beginning of the sub. Stop suspends the code so it doesn't progress any further. You then attempt to open a different form, maximize the current form and set focus to an object on the current form. You then Dim several variables, then turn off the warnings. I would think that opening one form when you open a form would give you an error message. I also think you would probably get another error message when you attempt to set focus on an object that is not on the second form. I think the maximize command is ineffective because it doesn't apply to the form that is being opened, but the form you attempted to use it on has already lost its focus, so it won't work there either. None of the Dim variables have anything to do, so they are taking up code space for no apparent reason. The Warnings have been turned off, I wouldn't do that unless there are some messages I don't want to see. One example is an update query where I know how many rows will be updated. Just my musings, I would be interested in what you're trying to do and how the second form relates to the first.
