I need to have my query results displayed in a subform.

I have a form that I use to input criteria that I have then being passed into a query. Currently the query saves the results as an excell file. I would also like to have the results show up in the form, I guess as a subform. If this is possible I would love some assitance on this. Thanks to all of you who have helped me so far.

Create an unbound subform based on this query and don't bind it to the main form with any master child relationship.

You will need to requery the subform in code somewhere maybe behind a command button.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Me.subformObjectName.Requery

What do I put in for the Me part of your code, and where does it go?

i also set up the sub form to be independent of the main form. I need the subform however only to populate when I run the query from the main form, to save on load time.

DoCmd.OutputTo acOutputQuery, "TestQuery" , acFormatXLS, "", False

to output to an excell file

thats what the Me.subformObjec tname.Requery is for.

Put a command button on the form to run the query (use the wizzard) and then add this line of code substituting the subformObjectna me.

You are a life saver thank you so much!!!

is there a way to keep that subform from running until I click that query button?

It will run when the form opens and shouldn't run again until the button is clicked.

Yes that is what it does now. But the query, unrestricted, could take A LONG time to run. is there a way to prevent this?
