Thanks for the response. I understand what you're saying, but I wouldn't trust the user to be able to type in the sort field. I have a form where they select the field on which to sort in a combo box, and then I want to open the report sorted by that field. Could I use your technique and have...

Thanks for trying to help, Shep. I'm sorry it was a little confusing. Here's the situation, hopefully explained more clearly: I have a form which IS bound to a particular table, so some of the controls on the form are tied to that table. However, there are also other controls on the form...

I'm trying to use a user-defined function with the fields portion of a SELECT query, for example: SELECT MyFunction([client_value]) AS new_client_value FROM client_info; The function is defined as follows: Public Function MyFunction(client_id) If (client_id = 1) Then MyFunction = 50 ElseIf...
