Data of many records of 1 form to populate another form via Cmd bu

Hi,
I am working on a database in which I need to be able to use a cmd button to
populate a new form but I need to be able to add many records from the
initial form in order to do so.

for example:
for lack of a better example I will just make one up that will mock my real
life database. I have candles of varying degrees of sizes, aromas, colors,
manufacturers, etc. So each candle has its specified number such as CDL-1248.
If you open the main form that the data entry occurs to record this data it
is filled with data relevant to the specified candle. If I create a
requesition to fulfill an order I want to be able to look at the candle
record, click a command button that dumps the necessary information about the
candle onto the requesition. I need to be able to find another candle (or
multiple other candles) in the records of the main form and add it to to the
same requisition. I am really not sure how to go about this. Any help is
greatly appreciated.
