I use OpenArgs to add a date to a form from another (WorkOrder)form and all
works well. However, I want to disable this when I open the form from a
second (menu)form. Here is my form load event that won't show the existing
date from the underlying table...

Private Sub Form_Load()
If IsNull(Me.OpenArgs) Then
'called from menu
Me!txtBottledDate.ControlSource = "BottledDate"
Else
'called from WorkOrder - shows the date I passed
Me!txtBottledDate = Me.OpenArgs
End If

End Sub

In the first instance, how do I get it to show the table's date? (it shows
a blank txtbox)

Thanks for any assistence.
 
Duh, I thought I was sure. In fact, I typed in the date in the table. Then
went back and checked it again, and it was blank! All is working fine now.
Thanks.

You sure BottledDate is populated in the recordsource for the form?
