How can I display data (on a form) from the previous form?

I have a form that requires the user to enter a value based on what the data
is on the previous record. Does anybody know how to do this?

Depends on how your tables are structured, and what you mean by "based
on". Could you explain the context?

Note that Access tables have no defined order: they're "heaps" of
data. There is no "previous record" in any defined way. You can set
the DefaultValue property of a form control in that control's own
AfterUpdate event, to carry a value forward, but I'm not sure that's
what you're trying to do!
