that sounds good... but how do you use this 'microsoft calander control'?

you cant sort, group or filter a report by anything other than the original fields from the query that the report is based on. so that means, you wont be able to set orderBy to the calculated field, unless you calculate the field in the query first, then sort by the query field.

i got it to work, thanks everyone for your help

yes thats exactly what i want to do. thats why i was asking if it was possible to do. i seems it is not, however.

thanks that makes things a lot easier. i had never heard of 'between' before.

Including calculated fields in the WHERE clause I have another question, more out of interest: Can you use the WHERE clause to include calculated fields on the report? For example, if i have a field on the report called text1 and it contains the calculation field: =[cost]*[qty]. In a form...

I have a form that lets the user select sorting and grouping options for a report. The sorting part was easy. However, I am not sure how to do the grouping. I am guessing I need to create a groupheader in run-time, based on a field the user wants the report to group by. Any ideas?

The main problem is interface... I can get the results, but not in a user-friendly way, and the clients are completely computer illiterate... But I have started coding in Visual Basic and it looks like I can get the results I need that way.

i started using a cross-table query and at first it seemed good. However, I need more grouping options. For example, i can have customer by colour, but i also need to then group the results so that they only show the results for a certain product. So for example, the user choose a product...
