#ERROR in textbox

I have this code in a text box

= dsum("[Amount]", "[July 09 - On Billings and Adjustments Data Query]",
"[Customer No] = " & [cboCustomerNumber] & " AND Format([Posting Date
Period], ""yyyymm"") = '" & Format([cboPostingDate], "yyyymm") & "'")

i keep getting #error in my text box

i'm struggling to find they answer to why


the query July 09 - On Billings and Adjustments Data Query
has fields of

customer Number
posting periood date
Amount

Now i have two combo boxes on my form which the text box should look up

Customer number and Name, are bound to another table

No (for customer Number)
Name ( for customer Name

Customer Listing Table

not linked to July 09 - On Billings and Adjustments Data Query

Is this what causing my error and how do i fix it

Thanks in advanced

Is the bound column of cboCustomerNumber a number field, and are Posting Date
Period and cboPostingDate date fields?

No Customer Number is a Text Field and posting Date is a Date Field.

If the field in the database is [Posting Period Date], then you have the
field name wrong. Try this:

=DSum("[Amount]", "[July 09 - On Billings and Adjustments Data Query]",
"[Customer No] = '" & [cboCustomerNumber] & "' AND [Posting Period Date] = '"
& Me.[cboPostingDate].Column(0) & "'")

I am assuming cboPostingDate is a combo box, and the date you want is in the
first column. If that date is a text value in the correct format (yyyymm),
then the above should work. If not, you will need to add formatting to that.

I changed the cboCustomerNumber assuming it is also a combo box, and the
number is in the first field:

=DSum("[Amount]", "[July 09 - On Billings and Adjustments Data Query]",
"[Customer No] = '" & Me.[cboCustomerNumber].Column(0) & "' AND [Posting
Period Date] = '"
& Me.[cboPostingDate].Column(0) & "'")

If it doesn't work, I would suggest adding the following before the DSum so
you can see what is really being passed:

Debug.Print Me.[cboCustomerNumber].Column(0)
Debug.Print Me.[cboPostingDate].Column(0)

The results will be in the immediate window when the code runs.

Also check the exact spelling of the table and fieldnames, as we can't do
that remotely...

As I wrote in another part of this thread:

Posting Date Period should be changed to a Date/Time field. The Format
function seems
to be able to apply date/time formatting to a text string that "looks" like a
date, but if it is a date it should be stored in a date/time field.

Be sure the exact field names, not any table field captions you
may have used, are included in the DSum expression. Naming problems are
typically the
source of the #Name error.

Also, please post some sample data (from just a few records) of the actual
values in Posting Date Period.

You have been exchanging some postings with Daryl S. I suggest that you stay
in one part of the thread (the Daryl S part would be good), as it is
difficult to know what you have tried when you questions are replies are
scattered around the thread.
