I have built an Access report and when I click on the
build button in properties, nothing happens. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.
 
If the button is on a report, you will wear out your mouse button attempting
to get the button to do anything other than appear. Reports don't support
command buttons.
 
I am referring to the build button that is displayed as an
elipsis in Access Properties dialog boxes.
 
Which properties of the report and/or control? There are potentially
thousands of build buttons on a given report. Does this happen for all?
 
This does not happen in all reports.
The report name is rptStoppedClockCases
which references a query.
I copied, pasted and renamed it, and then changed the
source of the query for an alternate calculated report. I
then clicked on the build button on the design properties
dialog for the new report: rptStoppedClockCasesbyRegion
and then clicked on the build button as for the OnOpen
event(it does depress) which has vb code specific to the
other report, but access does not respond.
 
Your copying and pasting of the report (I assume this is the report and not
the query) may have resulted in a corrupt report.
