You bind them by including a query or table as your record source. If your
form is not bound to your data, then it won't show anything except what you have typed at that moment. To pull data from your database tables, it must be bound to the table or a query. -- Rick B "Bill" wrote in message ...

Access cannot export unbound forms or reports as XML
Rick, I understand. My db consists of one table, two queries, four forms
(incl a switchboard) and four reports. Can you tell me how or point me to info on how I bind these things. -- Bill Kenney "Rick B" wrote: You bind them by including a query or table as your record source.

Access cannot export unbound forms or reports as XML
What are you trying to export? Which report?
Just go into design view for that report and make sure that it is tied to a table or query. If you are seeing data from your records in your report, then it is bound. -- Rick B "Bill" wrote in message ... Rick, I understand.

Access cannot export unbound forms or reports as XML
Rick, The purpose of the db is to allow users to add/edit/update project
tasks. We were going to connect via SharePoint, but our version does not support doing this and the upgrade is not set till 4th quarter. So I thought I could export it to the web and allow users to access it via that channel. I thought I would have to export it all, so users could add/edit/update their tasks. When I view the reports in Access I do see data. But when I export it I get the unbound message. Bill -- Bill Kenney "Rick B" wrote: What are you trying to export? Which report?
