Me again
Greetings
Many moons ago in an older version of Access I created a database to
administer various aspects of home life, including a facility to print
address labels for everyone who is marked as eligible for a Christmas card -
so that function only gets used once a year.
It worked last year when I was using Office 2000. During this year though I
have acquired Office 2002 (yes out of date still, but at least it's legal!).
When I just tried to print the labels a window opened up, headed Enter
Parameter Value - asking me to input a value for "Trim".
Trouble is it's so long since I created this or did any such work with
Access that I've forgotten most of the design stuff.
There is a macro that opens a Report, which shows a label design, and each
line in that starts =Trim(
for instance first line is =Trim([ccardname] & "" &[lastname])
second line is =Trim([line1])
and so on.
It never used to ask for a Parameter value, it just printed. Whatever I
input into this new window, I just get pages printed with the word "error"
Did something change between 2000 and 2002, or any other ideas?
The rest of the database is working fine.
