Susan, no, I was trying to use a value in a text box on a form to provide criteria for a query that is the source of a report. this worked fine until I tried to use more than one value. I have since aborted and used the where argument in the openreport method of the docmd... I am sure it was all about how a string gets "pasted" into the criteria of a saved query as opposed to a numeric value. thanks for responding.. bob -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com]On Behalf Of Susan Harkins Sent: Tuesday, May 17, 2005 2:55 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: RE: [AccessD] query criteria You're grabbing two criteria values from an open form from a fixed query? Susan H. I should have been clear. The reference to the form textbox is in the query grid. So I think that all I need is the values not the "xxxx =". Can I "Debug" the query somehow? And see what is being supplied for criteria? Sorry if I did not include that before. thanks again. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com]On Behalf Of Susan Harkins Sent: Tuesday, May 17, 2005 2:40 PM To: 'Access Developers discussion and problem solving' Subject: RE: [AccessD] query criteria Insert a Debug.Print statement in the right spot so you can read the evaluated criteria component. You're probably getting something like Field = "xxx" Or "xxx" You need: Field = "xxx" Or Field = "xxx" Susan H. Hello to the list, Why might I not get any results from a query that uses a text box on a open form for one of the criteria for one the query's fields? I can type the same text into the criteria myself and the query returns the proper set. BTW, this only goes bad when using more than one value. These are text types. Example: Works in grid: "0232" "0232" Or "0224" Works in Form textbox: 0224 No work in Form textbox: 0224 or 0232 "0224" or "0232" TIA, Bob Heygood -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
