    Checkboxes updating table

    There may be a more elegant way to do what you want, but I would suggest using Append action queries to write the records you need based on which checkbox(s) are checked. HTH JT

    Run Macro if =2

    Have you tied the macro to the after update event of the specific field on your sibform ? Also I would use a conditional macro which would check all variations you need. = 2 then Msgbox 'about two', >3 then Msgbox '4 or more'. HTH JT

    Don't think you can do it 'dynamically' in a macro but you should be able to use VBA code to accomplish what you want... DoCmd.SetWarnings False DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acFormatXLS, "name of table (or possibly query)", "c:\db_Excel\NANGenderCalls.xls", False, ""...

    Newbie Help - Query Intergration

    Combo box size restrictions

    IS your combo box tied to a source field ? If so, the width of entry would be held to that field's size in the table. If no Control Source, try increasing the size by adding your own Column Width and IF you do, also put the total width in List Width. HTH JT

    Multiple Forms from Single Table

    Instead of splitting into multiple forms as it sounds like you've done, have you considered using a single TABBED form, putting the data categorically on each tab as necessary ? Sounds like the problem you currently have is that Access thinks more than one of you are changing the same record...
