    Date Format in string variables

    Spoke too soon Mile, I spoke to soon. Made the change and same result. It is very strange because the [dateofbirth] filed in the query is 10 digits. When I string it with the names it puts a short date format. Could it be a problem in an underlying table format ? Chris

    Security & MS Developer Packaging

    It's actually the security log-on to open the entire database. I set it up in the workgroup file. It works fine if I open the file using Access, but when I open it through the packaged program ((access runtime) it opens the program without asking for a username & password ?

    Error messages

    hth, Thanks for the info on manually splitting. I will persue that. I was just wondering if that error "the operation is not supported within transactions" specifically indicates a lack of contact with the database ? I will also check the signal strength on the tablet. Thanks again, Chris
