No Gustav....we had this conversation with regard to GOTO. Don't blame the fact it is there...blame the improper use of it..

This is the confusingly-named 'Report View' of a report, which was new to Access 2007 as an additional (i.e. as well as Print, Preview, etc) view of a report. Yes, I have used this a number of times, and found it very nice. The user can use built-in right-click menus to filter the data, and you can use the Click event to link from report records to detail forms, etc. Being able to assign a Control Source to an image control is another thing I have had cause to use quite a lot. Just a small thing, but anything that saves time and effort for the developer is nice. I have also really liked the new TempVar (temporary variable), which I have used extensively. Very easy to create anywhere, anytime, in your code, and then can be used throughout the application in code, in query criteria or calculated controls, in calculated expressions in form or report controls, etc. Very handy. -- Regards Steve -- AccessD mailing list AccessD at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/accessd Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
