I use autonumber PKs or whatever that was turned into in SQL during the upsize. So now I want to have an sproc with a param of type int, but have the default value be the wildcard so that all records are passed back if no param is provided. Further I want to be able to pass in the wildcard in the Input Parameters property of the form to load all the records if I have previously narrowed it down. Alter Procedure qlfrmTitle (@TI_ID Int = 0) As SELECT * FROM dbo.tblTitle WHERE (((tblTitle.TTL_ID) like @TI_ID)) ORDER BY tblTitle.TTL_Title; return Works to return no records. Good so far. Alter Procedure qlfrmTitle (@TI_ID Int = 1) As SELECT * FROM dbo.tblTitle WHERE (((tblTitle.TTL_ID) like @TI_ID)) ORDER BY tblTitle.TTL_Title; return works to return one record with the pk of 1 if no param is provided by the form. Good so far. Alter Procedure qlfrmTitle (@TI_ID Int = %) As SELECT * FROM dbo.tblTitle WHERE (((tblTitle.TTL_ID) like @TI_ID)) ORDER BY tblTitle.TTL_Title; return refuses to save. Doesn't like the %. Likewise with *, likewise with '%' etc. I think perhaps the wildcard character is a text wildcard. Is there a numeric wildcard symbol or something? John W.
