A couple of minor points...
You asked this same question in the Getting Started newsgroup and it was
answered successfully by John Vinson.
(the same suggestion as mine)
If you must post the same question to more than one group, include both
newsgroups in the Newsgroup section of post.
(ex. microsoft.public.access.reports ;
microsoft.public.access.gettingstarted)
Any responses in one group will be seen in the others. This prevents
duplication of effort , answering a question that has already been handled
successfully.
See...
http://www.mvps.org/access/netiquette.htm under multi-posting.
group suppression is what they called when i went to school....
That may be so, but that terminology is incorrect.
And... it wouldn't hurt to say thanks when someone tries to help you...
