    Record Locking - Help me avoid further corruption!

    Ok, here's the deal. I'm tired of fixing our gigantic table because of corrupt records in my firm's database.

    I have a Macro that is doing the "Open Report" action. Each of these reports shares the same date as a criteria (I used [Enter Date]). It prompts the user three times. How can I just prompt the user once (same date for all three reports).

    Save Query Page Setup (Landscape, Margins)

    Two queries I use are part of a monthly report that prints out automatically with a macro. Unfortunately, the query does not save the Page Setup information, and the information will not fit on one page. Is there a way to tell Access to either: Keep/Store the Page Setup info such as Landscape...
