Closing a popup

[Tony Williams]

I have a popup form that asks for criteria before opening another form. My
code is
Private Sub cmdFindDocs_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdFindDocs_Click

Dim stDocName As String
Dim stLinkCriteria As String

stDocName = "frmMeetingPapers1"

If IsNull(Me.mtgcommtxt) Then MsgBox "Please enter Group Code"
Me.mtgcommtxt.SetFocus
Cancel = True
If IsNull(Me.MtgDatetxt) Then MsgBox "Please enter Meeting Date"
Me.mtgcommtxt.SetFocus
Cancel = True
If Not IsNull(MtgDatetxt) And Not IsNull(mtgcommtxt) Then
DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
End If

Exit_cmdFindDocs_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_cmdFindDocs_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdFindDocs_Click
End Sub

However when the other form opens I want the popup to close automatically. I
added DoCmd.Close at the end of the code but this didn't work. Can anyone
help?

Anyway, you can do:

DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria
docmd.Close acForm, me.name

I did also notice that you did not set strLinkCritera?

Did you leave that part out by accident?

Add the Docmd.close just before the end if.

Thanks Jesse I've used Albert's code looks similar

Thanks Albert. The strLinkCriteria was a leftover from "cutting and pasting"
Thanks for spotting it.
