Form Transition

i have 6 forms that collects different information about an employee what i
need ot happen is when you save some basic info that is related to the
previous form? how is this accomplished so that when you add a new employee
to this database you can do it by filling out the first form, select a next
button nd then fill out each addition form and in the mean while the persons
name, adddresss, phone, etc...

On the first form and on each after that go to the whatever is your last
record to enter (textbox, combo box, list bos, or whatever) go to event, find
after update, and type docmd.openform "the name of the next form",, and
follow the instructions. On the last form if you want ot come back to the
first do the same thing, give it your form name. All your forms need to be
linked so that you get the correct data on each. Go to properties of each
form go to data and check master-child links and make sure they are linked to
a common property.
