Filter Form based on OnClick from Text Box of another form
Hi,
I have a job list form with basic info on it. I want to be able to click on the job number text box which then opens up a more detailed form and applies a filter so that I only get the record for the job number that I have clicked on from the underlaying form. Could someone please tell me how to do this as I am guessing it should be fairly simple although I can't figure it out. Thanks in advance |

Filter Form based on OnClick from Text Box of another form
Dim strWhere As String
strWhere = "[JobNumber] = " & Me.[JobNumber] Debug.Print strWhere 'for testing only DoCmd.OpenForm "NameOfForm", , , strWhere Note: If the job number field is a number data type, the code above will work. If the job number field is a text data type, use this instead: strWhere = "[JobNumber] = """ & Me.[JobNumber] & """" Replace [JobNumber] with the name of the job number field Jeanette Cunningham MS Access MVP -- Melbourne Victoria Australia "Phil H" wrote in message ...
