I am running into a problem with a cross tab query. I have a report based on a parameter query, which is in turn based on a cross tab query (which is based on the same parameter), and ADO doesn't seem happy. On MSFT's site, they use DAO in their (very complex) example, and they show how to specify a parameter (qdf = a QueryDef, and qdf.Parameters(xxx) = yyy). I really prefer to use ADO (trying to learn it), but I don't see how to specify a parameter's value in ADO. I'm assuming that's the problem , because Access keeps saying that I'm not specifiying required info. Also, when I went through and replaced all instances of parameters in the queries (query based on queries based on queries) with solid numbers, it worked. In the actual queries, the parameter is: [Forms]![frmWeeklyData]![fraMonths] This simply refers to a frame containing option buttons so that I can specify the month I'm interested in. The month's number is then used by the queries. Running the queries without the report works just fine. However, since a cross tab query is involved, and there can be varying numbers of columns, I have to use dynamic columns in the report, and that's where complexity rears its ugly head. The parameter query (that calls the cross tab query) is necessary because I have information in addition to the cross tab query itself which is needed in the report. Here's the code portion that Access highlights: rst.Open _ Source:="qfrmWeeklyData", _ ActiveConnection:=CurrentProject.Connection, _ Options:=adCmdTable I'd greatly appreciate any help with this.
