Question : How to order this sequence of events

As seen in
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Microsoft/Development/MS_Access/Q_24479396.html?cid=239
I got a solution that works very well independently of one another...but I run into a Catch-22 now that I have the code all together and working....

I need to set the tag of the form i'm opening after it opens....
I also need this tag to be set before the form opens so that I can use the proper SQL statement

How can I arange this to all work well together?

    Forms![frmGetDate]!RecorodSouce = SQL 
    Forms![frmGetDate].Tag = "frmMarketing" '<-- Put the Tag on to show the _
