I have a multiple item form based on a query. It is a list of customers
along with the total invoice amount. Each customer is identified by a
category AND the customer name. I have added a button at the end of each
line to open a form that allows me to edit the customer and also display a
list of invlices in a subform.

No matter what I try, the form I'm trying to open always displays the same
customer record. It will not display the customer of the row in which I
clicked on the button.

I'm sure that this can't be that difficult, I just can't crack it.

I am a beginner at VB and I'm using Access 2007.
 
Sounds like you're missing the link criteria. post the code behind your button.
 
I'm using an embedded macro, there is only one action (OpenForm) and it has
the following arguments:

Customer, Form, , "[CustomerCategory]=" & "'" & [CustomerCategory] & "'" And
"[Customer]=" & "'" & [Customer] & "'", , Normal
