Unclear on who closes the form. If User B can't see the new record until User A
closes the form, then I would suspect that User A has not done anything to cause
the currently displayed (but not saved) record to be saved.
Try adding a button to the Input form that can be clicked when you are ready to
save the underlying data to the table(s).
Code would be
If Me.Dirty = True then Me.Dirty = False
See if that works to show the record. If not, post back and perhaps someone
will have an idea of the cause of your problem.
Also, what version of Access are you using? Is the data stored in an Access
database, SQL server, someplace else?
