Utilizing a different form when clicking the "Add Record" button

I'm looking to have a user utilize a different form to add a record to a table depending on which table they are adding the record from. I assume this can be done via some sort of URL Report field ...

Well Don, that worked, thank you. Couple things though...

1. Is there way to show a button instead of that lock picture?
2. this type of field does not have the option to open in a new window like others do (unless you right click and select that from the menu, which they won't want to do). This is something my boss is definitely going to ask for.

Custom Built but you have to put on a web server

To open in a new tab you need to insert the HTML code for it.
"<a href=" & $URLGenAdd & "' target=\"_blank\">"  & $IMGLock &  "</a>"

This is all HTML.  The concept is simple but the syntax and quote marks get tricky.

Spend some time on W3 and you will be able to do amazing stuff
