How to import an Autonumber field in to a textbox in a VB form??

[merv805]

I am trying to display the data from a table with the property value as a "autonumber" into a label box on a form inside VB. Do I have to make any necessary conversions of data types to insert this "autonumber" into my label's caption.

I also had another had another question in regards to automatically placing the system's date into a text box on a form.

Can anyone help me??
Thanks for taking the time to help....

You should just be able to reference the field by name
similar to label1.caption = RS!RecID

Re the date - in the form load event add the line
text1.text = format(now(),"mm/dd/yyyy&quot or whatever format you want.

Hope this helps.
