    Hi,

    I’m trying to filter a query based on a combo list control [cmbIndividual] that resides on [pageCensu] on frmReports. When the I run the query using the following sql it comes up null:

    [forms]![frmReports]![cmbIndividual]

    If I try it with the following it also comes up null:

    [forms]![frmReports]![pageCensus]![cmbIndividual]

    What am I missing?

    Thanks,
    Leesha

      [forms]![frmReports]![cmbIndividual]
      Looks OK to me.
      Is the form frmReports Open when the report runs

      The only time it normally returns NULL rather than a prompt is if the Form is open in Design rather than Data Mode,
      or if the combo box has no value inside it.

      I assume by page you mean you are using a Tab Control.
      You do not normally have to reference the tab control.

      Hi Andrew,
      The form was open so that is why I wasn’t sure about adding in the tabbed page. I went back and hunted and found that at somepoint (God only knows why or when) I set the bound column to 2. Once I reset it to 1 the report ran.

      Thanks!

      That’d do it!
