[AccessD] Subqueries assistance please - Solved...

Hello Gustav,
Thanks for your advice. Another list member sent me some advice on 
subqueries which I will use later. The Dlookup suggestion gave me an idea 
and I ended up solving it by doing a DSum directly to QUERY A, since that 
was the purpose of combining them - it summed the results of one field from 
Query A. The DSum worked perfectly...

  TotalHolidayWeeks = DSum("Weeks", "qryMyFirstQuery", strWhere)

and I used

strWhere = "tblCourseHolidays.CampusID= CampusID) AND 
((tblCourseHolidays.StartDate)> #StartDate#) AND 
((tblCourseHolidays.EndDate)<#EndDate#));

I was then able to pass the three parameters into a function and return 
only the Holiday weeks.

Thank you to all who considered my plight and offered solutions.

Cheers
David

Hi David

To put one query into another, look up the archives for
   "SQL in-line subquery"

The easiest way to extract the value to a textbox is to use DLookup:

   =DLookUp("[Weeks]","[qryYourCombinedQuery]")
