Hi all,
I was hoping someone could provide a little direction for me with this
problem.
I have three reports already made, we'll call them myRpt1, myRpt2 and
myRpt3, in my Access db, and I want to be able to fill a combo box on
a form with these three values and be able to select one for viewing
in this manner. I'm not sure how to bring in each of the reports and
treat them as objects for the combo box. Any ideas? Thanks in
advance!

You could put a combo on a form, and give it these properties:
Name cboReport
Row Source Type Value List
Row Source "myRpt1"; "myRpt2"; "myRpt3"
After Update [Event Procedure]
Click the Build button (...) beside the After Update property.
Set up the code like this:
Private Sub cboReport_After Update()
If Not IsNull(Me.cboRe port) Then
DoCmd.OpenRepor t Me.cboReport, acViewPreview
End If
End Sub
If you want to read the names of all reports into a combo, see: http://members.iinet.net.au/~allenbrowne/ser-19.html

Hello all,
I do not know if this question is regarding table design, queries, or

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:
