Initializing control values of a form
 

I'm working with a form in VBA and I'm trying to initialize the value of a
couple of textbox.values priior to displaying the form. The problem is I'm
seeing the values appear or not appear in no clearly definable pattern. If I
put a breakpoint in the code before the value is set and step it forward, I
can see the data go in and when I release the break it does show up in the
form as expected. But when I take the break off, it stops working again. I
have two fields doing this, one an integer and another a date. I fixed the
date anommaly by assigning the date to a variable and using the variable to
set the form value. But I can't seem to get the integer value to work
consistently. It's really dirt simple code so I'm at a loss to understand
what is happening.... Anyone have any ideas?
