Can anybody out there help me please on apply filter in MS Access. I have a form that create from the query, which contain field chidid (text field), in the form footer, I add the button to open another form (searchF form), which have an unbound text box (text1). It works fine with this code:
DoCmd.ApplyFilt er , "childid='" & Form_SearchF.Te xt1 & "'"
But if I change the data type of childid field to number it does't work. The error message is :
" Run-time error 2501
The Applyfilter action was canceled"
Your responds are highly appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks.
The syntax you are using above is for text data types. For a numeric data type the syntax would be as follows (remove the extra spaces inserted by the text editor):
DoCmd.ApplyFilt er "childid=" & Form_SearchF.Te xt1
If you need to deal with both data types, you could do it like this: -
If IsNumeric(Me!childid) then
-
DoCmd.ApplyFilter "childid=" & Form_SearchF.Text1
-
Else
-
DoCmd.ApplyFilter "childid='" & Form_SearchF.Text1 & "'"
-
End If

fine but I would like to change the filter property to Like instead of
equals due to some of the booking references being very long.
I've tried DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "bookref like " *...

I have a Button on a form that filters on 2 fields using the following code:

This works fine. However, I also want to filter on a field in a Subform when no record exists (or Is Null).
