Filtering a forms recordsource being used for a report

Hi all.
Im using a form's recordsource for a report. which works fine

Me.RecordSource =
Forms("frmdate0 1").Form.Contro ls("HoldLog").F orm.Controls("f rmHoldLog01").F orm.RecordSourc e
Ive got a couple of buttons on the form which allows the user to filter from
a full recordset, on the form. I now wish to use a date filter when running
the report, so that the report takes the filtered recordset (me.recordset)
and applies the date filter. I don't mind if i have to put a form in the
middle to hold the dates, but i do need to apply the date filter only the
the form's current recordset.

Any ideas?

Well No reply from the group on this one....?

The solution i used was to apply all the filters from the form, and use it
to modify the SQL, which I used as the new recordsource. The report was then
run from the Form recordsource.

Okay, I have worked on this and then some, but cannot seem to crack it. So if someone can straighten my code out, or suggest a new approach, then I'm all ears.

The other one (tblGroup) is only use for the eight group types that I'm trying to use as a filter. The tblGroup is hooked to the tblReports Group field...

I have a lot of respect for David Fenton and Allen Browne, but I don't understand why people who know how to write code to completely replace a front end do not write something that will automate the code that implements managing unbound controls on forms given the superior performance of unbound controls in a client/server environment. I can easily understand a newbie using bound controls or someone with a tight deadline. I guess I need...

The problem is that there are five classes at the moment and will be more classes (or courses) in future semesters. I don't want...

I have a report generated via an ID selection made in a dropdown on a form. The report filters by an on click event in a preview report button on the form. Everything in the report, including subreports, filters perfectly, with the exception of a running sum DLookup field on the main report. This field looks up a value in a foreign table. I'm not clear where I'm supposed to be filtering this field, since it obviously isn't picking up the...
