    How to run a report while just entering parameters once?

    Hi, when I run that code it brings through the ClientID in the output that I put in, so yes it works. (it was only supposed to bring through a number, not anything else, right?) Thanks for helping VBAInet, both with my Access and spelling issues :D

    How to run a report while just entering parameters once?

    I couldn't stick it all into one query as the latter ones bring through multiple records per ID and was causing problems. Also, the format the person who wants the report was very specific. The data source(s) are 3 spreadsheets I uploaded to Access, set as tables.

    How to run a report while just entering parameters once?

    Hi VBAInet :) I have created a form that includes ClientID, CLient Name in a drop down box. I have referred to that form in my criteria of my queries. When I run the reports individually, it asks for the CLIENTID and runs fine. When I've added them all into 1 report as subreports, its asking...

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    When I create a form which the user selects who/what they want to run the report for, I include other details such as ClientID, FirstName, SecondName. I drop into VBA to open this form when the button is clicked. I add this to the criteria in a query so the report filters on the selected record...

    Yes, clientID, but if the filter could show the name, that'd be the best :)

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    I would say ClientID for filtering (there are no blanks). There are 2000+ records its looking at so the more detail the better. I thought I'd got away from Access. SQL I kind of get and usually just analyse numbers. Designing is a horrid experience!

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    Yes, that's right. Also, the ClientID the user usually knows. This also helps differentiate between those that have the same name. I really appreciate you helping, its been a long long few weeks.

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    Actually, Access created an "ID" as primary key. This is due to there being 8 duplicate ClientIDs. So what is linking them all is the "ID" field.

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    Yes, that's right. All report/subreports are linked via ClientID. In an ideal world, I'd like that the form (Frm_CLientBox) I have created that has the CLientID, Lastname, FirstName come up when the user clicks on the report so they can filter from that point.

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    Ha, I'm a novice developer, my colleague had a heart attack and I've got to look after her system until she returns. I tend to copy paste her VBA and just change the relevant fields. Just to confirm, I can't do what I am wanting to do?

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    They are used to clicking a button on a form to open a Form with a dropdown box for them to choose a record from before running a report. The form I made for this, based on ClientID, also included First and Last name to help them find who they want. I've started recreating the report based...

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    Thanks for that. I don't understand lots about VBA so i'll just rewrite the report based on a query. Its got to be user friendly too and this will be too complex for end-users to figure out. Thanks for your help though! J

    Filtering a report made directly from a table?

    Ha, no! :( I've just googled it and it says there should be a togglefilter option on the data tab in the report properties, but there isn't? EDIT: found it I think (see the attached), not sure what to do from this point.
