Hidden Report

[cmina]

Please HELP!!! This will drive me crazy.
I have a report that doesn't appear on the list of reports and yet it exists because it's connected to a command button. It's not hidden (!!!) it just does not appear on the list of the reports!
Anybody has a clue on how to unhide it?
(btw tools/options/hidden objects is checked)
Thank you for your efforts in advance.

If you know what the report title is you change the sort order in the window so it appears at the top if at all.

If worst comes to worst use import the report into another database, then import it back again and see if that makes any difference.

Also, if you want to get into the design of the report immediately use:
(I think)

Docmd.OpenReport "YourReportName",acDesign

To all: Thank you for your replies!

pcs: I've tried all of those. Nothing!!!

Fornatian: The report doesn't appear at all on the window list! It is connected to a command button, so when I click on it it appears. I will try to export it and re-import it back and let you know if it works!

Are you sure that you are looking at a report and not a print-out of the form. Take a look at the coding behind the command button and see what it states.

Carol, thank you for your reply. I'm looking at a report for sure, not a form printout.
I solve the problem by exporting the report to a database and then re-importing it back. Thank you pcs, your suggestion worked.

H-Hmmm...that was my suggestion actually but pcs can take the credit seeing as I had no idea it would work anyway!

Ooops! Sorry Ian. It was your suggestion indeed!
My apologies and my thanks to you!
Hope I will have the potential one day to be of help to you too.
