    Problem with Date() function

    I have a date field in my query and I'd like it to return records with today's date. I used "Date()" as the only criterion, but when I run the query, I get an error message: "Undefined function 'Date' in expression." Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Validation question

    I have a two-character text field that can contain one of about 30 different preset codes. I have a long-integer claim number field. If the two-character code = "CN", the claim number field cannot be null (it's okay if it's null in any other circumstance). Help? Thanks!

    Disappearing data in calculated field

    I have a report that contains five subreports. The query for one of the subreports contains a date field that prompts for the date range for the subreport. This is the only field in the entire report (meaning the main report and all five subs) that asks for a prompt. When I run the report, it...

    I have a form called Contacts and inside that a subform called PubOrders and inside that a subform called Publications (which contains a list box that looks up our pubs in another table). When I'm in the list box field, the drop-down list works fine, but after I make the selection, I get an...

    AutoTab

    I know it's a not a "regular" option with drop-down lists, but I'd give my eye teeth to be able to AutoTab to the next field after selecting from a drop-down list. Is there any way to do this?

My where condition for the action is: [ClaimantID]=[Forms]![ClaimantsInput]![ClaimantID] But when I click the button in the report, I get an "Enter Parameter Value" window...

    Control Source Problem: Last and First Names

    In a report I have created a text box in which I'd like the last and first name fields to appear: =[LastName]+", "+[FirstName] It works great, unless there is no data in the FirstName field, in which case the report shows no name at all. (A few of our clients are companies, not individuals.)...
