Thanks Mr. Scouser! So... can any of you other clever bods out there help? In a nutshell... all I want to do is: Apply a filter to a textbox on a report which gets its value with the Dlookup command. I'm not even sure if it is possible... :confused: Cheers :D

Thanks for the suggestion - but I'm afraid that it wont do what I want it to do... Edit: I should explain why... sorry was rushed off to drink coffee! There is one recordset per page - and the fields come from two or three different related tables - so the grow-shrink thingy wont do the trick...
