    Main Report and Subreports

    That's what the popup/search form is for, yes. Every report (query) can reference the same Form.searchForm.StartDate field.

    Text Box on form to Show Total Number of Records

    If your tables aren't huge or speed is not a big factor, DCount should do exactly what you want.

    Main Report and Subreports

    Your question is a little vague, but it sounds like you're talking about filtering by form? Your "form to supply the Start Date and End Date" needs to stay open behind your report. The queries for your reports can reference that form's fields directly in your criteria... look to the Expression...

    Import txt file using VBA (not DoCmd.TransferText)

    Sorry, our network goes out if it rains (wish I was kidding), so I'm paranoid. sumdumgai, use what you're comfortable with. We're just offering advice.

    Import txt file using VBA (not DoCmd.TransferText)

    Might it be easier to import the whole thing and then throw out the ones you don't want? Importing by VBA is going to be perilous if you have a shaky network...

    Database is TOO slow

    That actually has 0% to do with what I was asking. Do you use anything like DLookup, DSum, Dcount, in whatever those comboboxes 'do' when a user tries to use them to create a record? Or are they just comboboxes ON the record and they are the first thing your users fill out in a new record? User...

    Database is TOO slow

    What do the comboboxes do to 'create a case'? I agree that this is probably network problems, but if any of this uses domain functions (Dlookup, etc) that will slow you down immensely.

    How to add a " on the end of a textbox value?

    For some reason plog's version will NOT work directly in a form control source (in Access 2010, at least). You can put it (or the easier to parse FormattedBuildResolution: [BuildResolution] & Chr(34) ) in a query, though, and use that behind your form. I don't know why it makes a difference.

    up on dir in FilePath

    Yeah the biggest trick with InStrRev is that it counts from the BEGINNING even though it's looking from the END. So you have to use Mid(), not Right().

    up on dir in FilePath

    Clip out the last folder with InStrRev? Or if you won't be moving it very often, you can be lazy and just hardcode the folder.

    2014 Programmers Survey - What do you Drink During Work

    Just plain tap water in my coffee cup at work, unless I'm falling over in which case a cola of some sort. RARELY coffee. At home, usually tea, soda, or again tap water (KCMO has some of the best in the country, we sell it bottled).

    Error only on first record.

    Something else must be going on to stop it from moving records, then. Have you tried: Docmd.GoToRecord acDataForm,stDocName,acNewRec

    Error only on first record.

    If(Me.DataEntry = True), I believe. Although I think if I understand the question correctly, the form is already in DataEntry mode and you want to check if this is already a new record. Me.NewRecord will get you that.

    Good catch Keith.

    auto generate filenumber based on number of records in that year

    Look into DCount if you must supply the number to them. Don't count on the numbers being exactly consecutive.

    Modify Titles of Query Fields

    I don't fully understand your first question. Yes it is possible to put this at the end of a field:& "." For your second, you're not asking it a question... what values can [SIGNED] have? Signed:SIGNEDYN:Iif([Library].[SIGNED]="Y","Yes","No")maybe?

    Capture database name

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff834513.aspx may be useful, then, or other Googling for 'database name DAO'. Good luck!
