ADP - Input Parameters from more than one form

Hello,

I have a form A in my ADP project. The record source of A has input
parameters.

I need to open form A from three different forms X, Y and Z.

When I open A from form X, I want it to take input parameters from form
X.
When I open A from form Y, I want it to take input parameters from form
Y.
When I open A from form Z, I want it to take input parameters from form
Z.

How do I accomplish this?

Thanks,

Isaac

Probably the easiest way it to pass the calling form name to form A via
OpenArgs, then have A generate a SQL string for its RecordSource property by
reading values from controls on the source form.

I usually don't like embedding parameter values in SQL when it can reasonably
be avoided, but I've used ADPs enough to know that any other way you might
attempt to do this is bound to be quirky and cause you massive headaches.

Thank you Steve! I now plan to use OpenArgs and use it in the On Open
event of the form to generate an appropirate SQL statement that
executes a stored procedure with the required parameters. As you
suggested then I plan to assign the generated SQL string as the
RecordSource of the form.

Thanks,

Isaac

Hello,

I tried passing a string through OpenArgs and tried to change the
record source of the form based on the argument passed. I get an error
message saying the Open form action was cancelled. Does this have
something to do with the (Cancel as integer) in brackets in the sub
routine? I tried removing this and setting the value of Cancel to
false, inspite of this the error continues to appear. Any solutions?

Thanks
