I have a module which i need to pass a form name.  If a pass astring
variable set to the form name the module gives me a 424 error.  Hardcoding
the form name in the module works but I need the flexibility to send variuos
form names at various times.

Hi,

To pass a form's name as a string, use:

dim strFormName as string
strFormName = "theForm"
Forms(strFormName) etc...
or directly
Forms("theForm") etc...

Hth,

You'd have to send the code you are using in your module in order to check
for correct usage ...

Both of these should work from any module attached to a form:

1.  Call GetFormName(Me.Name)
        Function GetFormName (strForm as String)
        End Function

2. Call GetForm(Me)
        Function GetForm(frm as Form)
        End Function
