Jon,

Try SQL instead of the Dcount.

Dim db as Database
Dim rs as Recordset
Dim strSQL as String

Set db = CurrentDb

'Set up SQL string . Note the format for date fields in Access -
#01/01/2008#
strSQL = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS DateCount FROM MyTable WHERE ndate = #" &
Me!MyField & "#"

Set rs = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL, dbOpenSnapshot)

If rs.Recordcount = 0 Then
MsgBox "Date Not Found"
Else
MsgBox "Date Found. Number of occurances is: " & rs!DateCount
End If

Set rs = Nothing
Set db = Nothing
