It contains two stacks. One is main menu. Another contains three different Bg cards. First one is Testing card. Second one test record bg card Third one is graphic report card. To display the test of a particular record in graphic figure. The program is supposed to search the name through the second bg cards to get the right record. From that record, the the data such as timing, words per miniute .. has to be read (access) or transfer to the third Bg card in order to display the accurate graphic report for a paritcular person'record. My problem is that I could not get the right data from the record I want in the second Bg card. Also when I have the program go the second Bg card(s) to do the searching. The script of the second Bg card (like button's or field's script also execute (which I do not it happen). All I want is to get the right data from the second Bg card and transfer to the third Bg card for the graphic report information. Forgive me, if I am asking a too easy question. Any suggestion would be very helpful and it can assiste me to complete the job quicker. Thanks in advance! Stephanie, .
