Select and display records on Form

T

Tom Mackay

I am trying to create a form which :
(i) allows user to input criterion to select client records by various fields
(ii) display the records meeting the criterion in a sub-form on the form
(iii) ultimately, allow user to de-select/delete individual records from the
select results before delivering each an email

First I tried to launch a make-table query via a button and let the sub-form
query those results. But whenever the button was pressed, it could not
complete...record locking, I guess, against the sub-form which has that table
"open".

Then I tried to launch a simple query, and let the sub-form query those
results. When the button was pressed, the query successfully ran but two
problems...one, the query itself actually came up on-screen and two, the
sub-form did not refresh.

I have fiddled with refresh and requery commands but cannot get them to
work. So, any help would be apreciated.

Txs,
Tom
