Multiple filters using combo box

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to filter a query using the following criteria:
Start Date and End Date
Plus
Issue or All
Agent or All
Rep or All

In each combo box I have the following:
SELECT [tbl_Issue].[Issue] FROM tbl_Issue union select ' All' FROM tbl_Issue
ORDER BY [Issue];
etc.

In the query I have the following:
Date: >=[Forms]![frmselector]![txtStartDate] And
<=[Forms]![frmselector]![txtEndDate]
Issue: Like [Forms]![frmselector]![Issue]
etc.
However, I get a blank query. What am I missing?
 
I suggest you download a sample database that uses a form built with combos
and textboxes to do the searching.
This sample shows you how to do all the code to filter the query and get
the records the user wants.

I tried Allen's example, but it's not working.

Only the date filters, which are text fields work. The other filters, which
are combo boxes, do not work.

That code you have posted does not look at all like the code in Allen's
sample search form.
To use Allen's code, build a search form and copy Allen's code and change
the combo and textbox names to suit the controls on your form.
I would also remove the parameters - you don't need to mess with parameters
when using a search form - much easier for you and the user.

Please explain a bit about frmSelector - is it the name of the form with the
combos?

.
 
I used his query option. I want the form to filter the query and then run a
report off of the filtered query. I do not want the filtered results to
display on the form. So I didn't use the form code as I'm not that skilled at
SQL to know what to use and what not to use.

frmSelector is the name of the form I'm useing to filter.

Thanks,
Whitney

Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to filter a query using the following
criteria:
Start Date and End Date
Plus
Issue or All
Agent or All
Rep or All

In each combo box I have the following:
SELECT [tbl_Issue].[Issue] FROM tbl_Issue union select ' All' FROM
tbl_Issue
ORDER BY [Issue];
etc.

In the query I have the following:
Date: >=[Forms]![frmselector]![txtStartDate] And
<=[Forms]![frmselector]![txtEndDate]
Issue: Like [Forms]![frmselector]![Issue]
etc.
However, I get a blank query. What am I missing?

Now I understand where you are coming from.

The way to go is to use the form code, but we make one important change just
before the end of it.
Instead of showing the records in the form, we use the filter string as the
where clause to open the report.
As well, you don't need to put any of the textboxes in the detail section of
the form - that section will just be empty on your form.
The user just sees the combos and a button to run the report.

You would use the search button from Allen's example to open the report
using the code below.
Change the button's caption to something like 'Report' instead of 'Search',
you will still need the reset button.

What to do?
Follow Allen's code and change the end like this

If lngLen > 0 Then
strWHERE = Left$(strWHERE, lngLen)
'Debug.Print strWhere
'Apply the string as the report's where condition
DoCmd.OpenReport "ReportName",acViewPreview, ,strWhere
End If

Note: replace 'ReportName' with the name for your report.

I used his query option. I want the form to filter the query and then run a
report off of the filtered query. I do not want the filtered results to
display on the form. So I didn't use the form code as I'm not that skilled
at
SQL to know what to use and what not to use.

frmSelector is the name of the form I'm useing to filter.

Thanks,
Whitney

Jeanette Cunningham said:
That code you have posted does not look at all like the code in Allen's
sample search form.
To use Allen's code, build a search form and copy Allen's code and change
the combo and textbox names to suit the controls on your form.
I would also remove the parameters - you don't need to mess with
parameters
when using a search form - much easier for you and the user.

Please explain a bit about frmSelector - is it the name of the form with
the
combos?

I tried Allen's example, but it's not working.

Only the date filters, which are text fields work. The other filters,
which
are combo boxes, do not work.
