Are you doing an "enter using" form? I think the autonumber doesn't get "set" until you save the record. My experience has been that when you exit the form, your variable would then be populated and can be referenced in code after the form is exited. But if you need it while still in the form, you'll have to issue a "saverow" to assign the autonum

So I put the variable field on the form so I can watch it(circled red). But when I step thru it I see the variable value in the form but not in the eep. Is there a better way after a form start and when a row is save to get the current autonumber value when those are triggered?
