David,
Thanks for the advice. It did work but you might be right about bindly directly to the table. This is turning out to be a bear. :)
Thanks again!

>>I have a blank form that users enter new provider info into, this form does not have a controlsource. I'm declaring variables and using insert from memvar to insert into my table. My problem is, I have a memo field for users to type notes but the memo field refuses to go into the table. I had to initialize some of the other variables (ie. date, char, etc), so how would I initialize a memo variable?
