I created a report based on a query with 2 parameters. The report works fine.
Now I am adding a subreport linked to the main report primary key. When
previewing the report it asks for the 2 parameters I expect. But then it asks
for a mysterious third parameter . Its as if all parts(query, main report,
subreport) of this report work ok on their own , but when I put them together
this problem arises. Don't know where to start looking. Your Help would be
appreciated.
 
If each part work fine, then mybe check the child parent properties on the
sub report property, mybe this field does not exist.
 
You put me on the right track. Previoiusly my query contained an *
indicating all fields, I changed this to individual fields. That by itself
did not help, but when you suggested to look at the link between child and
parent I decided to recerate this link (now based on the new query) The
report now works as expected. Thanks a million I can once again get on with
my job and life in general....:)
(teaches me for being lazy using the *)
