Terryomsn,
I think John was asking for more information regarding your tables. Are you really storing multiple duplicate values in the same table? Is the form bound to some type of a transaction table? Is there a separate employee table?
How about provide more context to what you are trying to do so someone can give the best help?

While using the form, I've found that Badge needs to entered, and 2 of the 3 other values are always the same and the third (Name) varies only by the concatenation of a 2 character code. That works fine if I continue to enter the same value 3 times.

While I have found information on what the control and form events are, I haven't found a discussion yet that pertains to populating forms in this manner. I am also looking for how and when, or if I can, reference the values in the control and record buffers.
