I am trouble shooting an existing application for a client. Someone else
developed it. Amoung other rather starange things, one special issues has
really gotten my attention. There is always the possibility that I am just
missing something, but I'd sure like to get some opinions from some of you.
So here goes...
A form has a query as its record source (nothing strange). However, when I
looked at the query, one of the criteria in the query is referencing a field
on the form for which it is susposed to be providing the data.
Question:
Is there any way at all that this could work?
Although I am not seeing any errors, it seems almost like a circular
reference. I am not seeing any data returned, but the person that hired me
says he is 95% sure that it works. I can eventually re-write this but under
the circumstances I thought I'd just run it by you guys.
In know this sounds crazy, but, thanks for any thoughts anywhy.
