So to ask such a stupid question. B ut where do you actually put this code?I can not see a change event area?ThanksWeezy

Thanks for your help it is appricted.I wondered i you knew how i could set up a validation pattern for a date field?and is there a way that when a print form button is pressed it automatically goes to a pre picked printer and not have the pop up screen appear.Thanks

That part worked great and i thankyou.But now how can i make the barcode not have the text embedded in the barcode. I am sure this may cause issues in the reading of the barcode.Thanks

I am creating a form and just wondered if it was possible the have2 areas link into each other so that when the user populates fields such as name that the second field self populates with the same ifomation but creates a barcode for a scanning application later.I look forward to any help with this ...
