This can be done 2 ways from what I remembe of VB and Access.
1) thru a macro (for those non vb coders)
1) start a new macro
2) set the first command to open a form (select the form you want to pop up) command is "openform"
3) set the next command to populate data "setvalue"
item is going to be: [Forms]![popupformname]![textboxtopopulate]
the value is whatever you want for the value.
2) in code. I'll leave this out for now unless someone asks how..
as for putting it in a particular place on the screen... I never got into doing that. I'm sure there is a way, try google. the google gods found everything for me when I needed it.
