*Edited*

I am looking to create a button on the main form that when clicked will Save the current record form and then show the info in that current record in a different form? I have tried the auto save when navigating away function. It doesn't establish the Record ID# so the formula showing the current form also shows in the newly opened form.

np, look at your list of forms and observe the Form ID#.
Then make a Formula URL button like

URLRoot() & "db/" & dbid() & "?a=dr&dfid=10&rid=" & [Record ID#] 

That says to display the record on Form ID #10

Is there a way to create a "universal" button where you click it to edit whichever form you're on? We have 30+ forms for the same table, so whenever you hit "edit," it takes you to the form that is the default for your role. I want to edit whichever record The user is on
