Change Query SQL Programatically

A

AlCamp

I need to change the SQL statement for a saved query "on the fly".
I'd be using the OnOpen event of a report, if that's possible.

I checked out the properties for queries, and can't seem to find anything to
hang my hat on.

Is this possible? Could someone get me going in the right direction, or
refer me to information as to how this might be done?

Thanks,
Al Camp

Try something like this:
CurrentDb.QueryDefs("MyQuery").SQL = "SELECT * FROM MyTable;"

Of couse, you could also set the RecordSource of the report itself in its
Open event:

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
Me.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM MyTable;"
End Sub

In what way? If you're just changing criteria, or the Order By clause,
you can use a Paramter query. Are you changing other aspects of the
query? If so, what?
