Filtering

B

I have form that opens up in filter by form mode, but it always contains the
last filter used, i.e. the surname field would contain the last name that was
entered for the filter.

Is there anyway to open up the form in filter by form mode without any
previous info showing? - thanks

In the form's OnOpen( ) event, try:

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)

On Error GoTo ErrHandler

RunCommand acCmdFilterByForm
RunCommand acCmdClearGrid

Exit Sub

ErrHandler:

MsgBox "Error in Form_Open( ) in" & vbCrLf & _
Me.Name & " form." & _
vbCrLf & "Error #" & Err.Number & vbCrLf & Err.Description
Err.Clear

End Sub

HTH.
