    MSys Strangeness

    I had a similar problem when WinXP users began using my Win2K Database. As far as I remember I just imported all of the Forms, Reports, queries etc. into a new database which fixed the problem. Out of curiousity - Are there any new OS versions accessing your db? Regards, Patrick

    global variable changes???

    Just before I leave.. Here is another quick n' dirty example which uses a Dlookup to get the Client name from the table. Each time you want to change the Client Name just change the Client name in the table. If you Open the Report you'll see what I mean. Is this a solution?

    global variable changes???

    global variable changes???

    There is always a simpler way.. If you have a look at the quick n' dirty attached example you'll see. If you set the ControlSource of the Report textbox to a textbox on the form from which you are opening it then it works. Hopefully this'll do the job for you.

    global variable changes???

    1. You don't need anything in the ControlSource of the TextBox - it is Unbound 2. The reason you are getting the second error is because you are performing an assignment statement in the general declarations section of the Module. try this out: In the Module, leave your Public strTownship as...

    Error Messages

    Something to bear in mind is that you cannot trap errors in macros. If you wish to trap these errors you will have to convert your macros to VB. Just to explain a little bit further the concept of Error handling; When an Error occurs the 'Err' object is called. The Err object contains...
