    Thanks for all the replies. Although a little slow, using DSum() for the sum gives me the check list I was looking for.

    Previous year value in columns

    Thanks. I should have spotted that. One final question. Why do you need the table alias - FROM myTable as T WHERE Is it because the subquery uses the same table as the main query?

    dlookup not working with certain dates

    Apologies, did not make myself that clear. Yes I have tried your solution and it works perfectly. Many thanks. I was just trying to understand your format argument in the format function "\#mm\/dd\/yyyy\#", particularly the back slashes.

    dlookup not working with certain dates

    Many thanks and take your point about the name, but it was only an example. I had tried with "Read_Date = #" & Format([Read_Date], "dd/mm/yy") &"#"), but with no luck. I guess the problem lies in getting the date format acceptable when passed over to SQL. Why do you need the back slashes as well?

    Elegant solution required to negate the use of additional forms

    Gemma, You make a good point and I really like the standard module idea. As for continuous forms, I've had my fingers burnt in the past, but they do make processing a lot of simple entries , like a check off list in the case, easier for the user.

    Elegant solution required to negate the use of additional forms

    Thanks Dcrak for an elegant solution. Form C, as you put it, in my case will either be opened via form A, or a switchboard menu item, but I think that will only mean a simple mod to the conditional statement you suggest which I hope I can manage. Thanks again, Russ

    In principle should it be possible to apply a filter to a totaled query with one field set to groupby Max. I have tried this with a report, but even though the filter is passed correctly in terms of syntax (as viewed in the property sheet) it is not applied even with 'filter on' set to yes...
