auto fill field in form

[mheck]

I want to be able to have 2 forms, and when I select the one form the type will automatically populate a field and when I select a different form a different type will populate the field. Can any one help me with this?
Thanks

what do you mean by select the one form the type will automatically populate a field?

Do you want a text box to be automatically filled when you load the form? or when you do something on a form (such as select an option on a drop down menu).

What is it you are trying to achieve?

What I am looking to do is auto populate a text box when the form is opened.

set the default value of the text box in the form design properties

...or, you can associate a form with a recordset (query or table) and pull the information that way (look in record source in the form properties).

It really depends on WHY you want to autopoulate and with WHAT you want to display.
