Need to show result in message box

[naveen prasad]

Hi all

please help me

table t1 fields f1,f2,f3 are name, mob,date
I have a form with a command button, when clicked it executes a query and
result will appear normally how we see like a spread sheet will be poped up.

for example i have created a query as
"select count(f1) from t1" normally if we run query the result will be in
spread sheet in a single cell( let say result is 100)

now what i want is when i clicked the command button , a message box should
appear with result on it i.e message box displays 100

kindly help me how to do it in coding also if required.

thanks

in the onclick event of the command button, you could do something
like this:


Msgbox Dcount("[F1]", "T1"), vbokonly


this doesn't use any saved query you may have, but just uses the
DCount function to get that count of F1 in table T1. If you have a
more complex query that you want to show the result of, you can use
the DLookup Function to grab your result.
