I am trying to open a second form from a the first one
when I click on a button and the second form is supposed
to show the information for the field Application Name
which needs to be pulled from the first form.

I have tried using:

Private Sub cmdInterfaceList_Click()

   Dim stDocName As String
   Dim stLinkCriteria As String

   stDocName = "frmApplicationInterface"
   stLinkCriteria = "[Application Name]"
   DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria

End Sub  

This opens the second form, but the Application Name that
it uses does not match the one showing in the first form.

I have also tried using:

Private Sub cmdInterfaceList_Click()

   Dim stDocName As String
   Dim stLinkCriteria As String

   stDocName = "frmApplicationInterface"
   stLinkCriteria = "[Application Name]= Me![Application
Name]"

   DoCmd.OpenForm stDocName, , , stLinkCriteria

This opens a small window that asks you to enter the
Parameter Value for Me!Application Name.

What can I change to make the second window open with the
correct Application Name without having to type it into a
parameter window?

Thanks!
