My understanding of your problem is that you wish to create a new record in the second DB that containes the information from 6 fields in the first DB. The solution is to create a field in both DB files that will have a unique identifier for each record, this could be the name (if it is guaranteed that no two names will be the same) or record number. This does not have to be something the user needs to see. Next under "define a relationship" in the "receiving DB file" that has this unique field as the match field. Next,in the receiving DB file" under "define a field", for each of the fields to contain information from the other file, define the look up using the relationship you just made and the corresponding field from the "giving DB file. Last, make a script that will take copy the unique indentifier from the "giving" file, creat a new record in the "receiving" file, then paste the unique identifier in the matchfield. This will pull the corresponding info into the second file from the first.
