Office 97 SR2.
I have a command button that opens a form, filtered. What can I do in VBA to remove this filter? Ideally, When the user clicks on a search button, the filter would be removed. Any ideas?
Thanks!

It depends on where you applied the filter in the first place. If you applied the filter to the form, use the form’s filter property and set it to an empty string (“”) or set the form’s FilterOn property to false. If you do the latter, you can reapply the existing filter if you want to by setting the FilterOn property to true.
