Using GUID as Filter for Report

I am trying to Filter a report with a GUID as the uniqueIdentifier. How is
this done? I can only filter using a secondary Unique string.

The code I would like to have work is:

Dim stDocName As String

stDocName = "Labels tblParts"
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acPreview, "[PartID]=" & Me.PartID

Thankyou in advance for your help.
 
Hello Alan,

As I know, this feature is not support. However, you could try to use ADO
to perform such kind of job:

Dim myGUid as GUID = GUID.NewGuid

mySQL = "UPDATE ITEMS SET Title="New Record No. 1", WHERE KeyID ='" &
myGUID.ToString & "'")
