Getting data from one form to another

[CD Tom]

In on a form I have many select buttons when one of the selections is called
up another form that just has a combo list for the user to select what item
the want to use, when I come back to the original form the selected data
isn't available. I'm using the acDialog to halt the original form but when I
close the other form the data isn't there. I need to close the second form
as it's only used once, just when the user selects a certain button on the
original form. Is there any way I can get that data once the second form is
closed?

It isn't clear what you want to "get that data" for or when???
I expect you should just set the dialog form's visible property to False.
This will keep the form open and its control values available.
