Welcome to VBForums

To do that you will need to have an error handler, see our Classic VB FAQ's (link in my signature) for an explanation of how to do that. You would then simply have code like: Form2.Show

It would be better tho to avoid the error in the first place.. if you show us your code, we can give you much better suggestions.

In form 1 write

If (no data found)
Goto jumpToForm2
Else
End if
Exit sub
jumpToForm2:
Form2.Show

In form2 after inserting data unload the form2.

That does exactly the same thing as the following (which is much easier to read):

If (no data found) Then
  Form2.Show
Else
  'other code here?
End if

..as I mentioned above tho, we need to know more to be able to give a proper answer.

And unless you are coding an Error Trap, forget GoTo exists.
