Hi all,

I have a form with a combo box and a button, from this combo box
you select a week you would like to view a report on and hit the
button. This then sets the reports filter to a specific date and opens
it showing the information for that date, my problem is it doesen't
seem to always work. I will select a week, and hit the button, which
sets the filter, then opens the report (tried opening then setting as
well) and it will just open the report with data from the last time i
selected a week, and it just will not change its data, as of right now
it seems stuck on week 43. Yesterday it was doing this so I put a
msgbox in code for testing purposes and as soon as that was in place it
started working and continued to after I took the msgbox out. Anyone
have any ideas?

You are setting the report filter and THEN opening it? How exactly? Are you
opening it first in design view? That would be totally unnecessary. The
OpenReport method includes an argument for applying a WHERE clause when the
report is opened. That is what you should be using.
