Hi,
I'm trying to set a filter with a command button. I've tried to do it like the examples I've read on numerous sites, but I can't seem to get the filter set. The code that seems most like the examples to me is:
Me.Filter = "[chkPaid] = 0"
Me.FilterOn = True
When I run this I get a box telling me to enter a parameter value for chkPaid. chkPaid is definitely the correct name for the checkbox control on the form. I've tried many variations with and without the square brackets, but as long as I have [chkPaid] inside of quotes I get the Enter Parameter box. If I leave the quotes off I get no parameter value request, but it doesn't set the filter either. What am I doing wrong?
