Hiya, I have a report which holds all information regarding Advertising Campaigns, and comprises a subreport which displays all the suppliers which belong to the advertsing campaigns (One to many relationship, linked on an ID field). I have the Subreport in the details section of my report. The way I want the information diplaying is all on one line for example.


Date Publication Suppliers

12/07/2002 The Times Cobblers Cove, Treasure beach, The Hilton

To get the suppliers on the same line as the others (suppliers come from the sub report), I figured if I put a text box (call it Allsuppliers) along side the other fields in the ID footer, and then in the Detail Format section include code such as
If Not Firstpass Then
Me!AllSuppliers = Report.RptSubSuppliers![SuppName]
Firstpass = True
Else
Me!AllSuppliers = Me!AllSuppliers & ", " & Report.RptSubSuppliers![SuppName]
End If
Remembering to reinialise firstpass and allsuppliers when required.

This code seems to work but my problem , when running the report, if there is no matching ID in the subreport it displays a msg “The Value you entered isn’t valid for the field.”

Can anyone please help. I’ve tried ignoring the code if isnull, but that doesn’t seem to work.

Thanks
