    Convert grouped records into one string

    Are there any changes to this when using an autonumbered field (as opposed to date)? When I use my primary key [MeetingID] instead of [Date] I get "No value given for one or more required parameters" I am using Jon's solution. Thanks, Marcus

    OK...Thanks...the Immediate Window shows me the output I want. The question now is, how do I activate this for a report or to have it populate a field in a table or query? I am familiar with activating modules with a control in a form, but I don't know how to get the output from this module...
