RE: How do you filter a report based on a value in a text box

Hi Joanne,

Thank you for your question.

I believe the only way to do it would be through Access VBA. I have tried various properties of the report and the text box itself.

You could try and create the calculated field in a query and then name and save the query.

Create a query based on that query and add all the fields and add a parameter to the calculated field.

Name and save the second query and create a report based on the second query.

When you view the report it should ask you for a value.

I hope this helps.

Regards

Simon

Access tip:

Closing form after a certain time period

To make a form close automatically after a certain time period, you need to assign the close function to a macro.

Save the macro and ope up the form in design view. open the Properties sheet.

In the TimerInterval property enter the length of time you want the form open for. This should be in milliseconds, so for instance if you want the form open for 5 seconds enter 5000, for an minute enter 60000.

You now need to attach your macro (to execute the Close action) to the OnTimer event property of the form.
