That's pretty good,.... so then are you saying that I would not need to use a
query, or... do not put any criterias into the query?

Possibly klatuu might remember the details of your question to which you
refer, but most of us need some quote to establish context, or reference, or
something -- it's best to follow up in the same message thread, by replying
to the message, also.
For other good suggestions on effective use of newsgroups, see the FAQ at

Thanks for the reference, but it probably wouldn't have done you much good,
as the actual Subject seems to have been "Form Not Reading Query". Just so
you'll know, everyone who helps here does so as a volunteer... we don't work
for Microsoft, and nobody pays us to answer questions in the newsgroups.
Few can afford the time and effort to leave one thread, go search for
another, read it, go back to the newer one, in order to try to provide free
help -- and it's even harder if the reference is misquoted.
Take a look at the reference I gave, to which you can just click-through,
and help yourself by trying to make it easy for people to help you.

I hope I didnt read your reply the wrong way, I will try not to be offended
by it,... I was trying to get back in contact with Klatuu,... in which he did
find the reference that I was talking about, it was not misquoted. I'd be
honored if I was talented enough in Access to be able to volunteer help.
Hopefully that day will come, but for now I am struggling trying to get my
1st database system to work properly.

That's good of you, to try to not be offended when someone tries to be
helpful.
I was trying to get back in contact with Klatuu,...
Again, I suggest you read the FAQ to which I provided a link. Newsgroups can
be immensely helpful if you understand what they are for, and how they work,
and don't try to "work against that." One of the basic things is that
newsgroups aren't just for putting two people in contact for free
consulting, but for exposing your questions to a wide range of knowledgeable
people. And they are about sharing the questions and answers with others who
read the newsgroup who may have similar problems.
in which he did find the reference that I was talking
about, it was not misquoted.
Yes, and that is where he responded, following up to the same thread, good
advice that you'll find in the FAQ I referenced. Look below... you quoted
that post as "11/17/06 Form Not Responding to Query" but, in fact, the
subject is "Form Not Reading Query" posted on the same date, by you, with a
number of responses from Klatuu. Perhaps to you, those subjects are
identical?
I'd be honored if I was talented enough in Access to
be able to volunteer help.
And, it is entirely possible that the time will come sooner than you think.
There are many of us who mostly answer questions here who started in the
newsgroups knowing only that Access looked to be a good software tool, and
that we wanted to work with others to learn more about it. It's amazing what
thirteen years, and researching and testing answers, and responding to
thousands (in some cases, tens of thousands) of questions will do to build a
store of knowledge on a a subject.
Hopefully that day will come, but for now I am struggling
trying to get my 1st database system to work properly.
And, I wish you good fortune with it, and hope that my comments will have
helped you to better use the newsgroups to get past the stumbling blocks.
