I am using Access 2000 and have this setup.
Tables
Program
Procedure
WorkInstruction
Form
the tables are set up with the following relationships.
Procedure is a child of Program, where a Program can have one or many Procedures.
WorkInstruction is a child of Procedure, where a Procedurecan have one or many WorkInstruction s.
Formis a child of Procedure and WorkInstruction , where a Procedure and WorkInstruction can have one or many Forms.
If that doesnt make sense I can try to elaborate a bit more.
Anyways, Each one of these tables has a status column which will be a number between 1 and 8. I am trying to create a report that shows these tables in hierarchical form but only show statuses 1-5.
If I make a query each report is based on that says status between 1 and 5 it says "The specified field 'Status' could refer to more than one table listed in the FROM clause of your SQL statement."
I have tried putting Program.Status, Procedure.Statu s, etc and that did not work.
I think my Access skills are a bit rusty or this db is set up poorly, as I did not set it up. Anyways, this is waht the report should generally look like. Where the -'s are supposed to be spaces, in other words indented for make a hierarchical look.
Program1
-----Procedure1
----------WorkInstruction 1
-----Procedure2
----------WorkInstruction 2
----------Form1
-----Procedure3
----------WorkInstruction 3
---------------Form2
Hopefully that makes a bit of sense also. I just want to show all the procedures under a specific Program, all the work instructions under a specific procedure, etc but only show statuses 1 - 5
Thanks in advance.

I think I may have figured out what the problem is. Since the database is setup a little wierd it may be causing the problem.
In the form table, it has two fields, one called procedureID, and workInstruction ID. This field can be null, but one or the otehr has to be filled in. If the procedureID is filled it it belongs to that procedure, if the workInstruction ID is filled in it belongs to that workInstruction .
Since a form can come under either of those, and there are two subreports that reference form as the source, it is giving this error.
Does that logic make sense? Am I correct in my reasoning?
Also, if that is the case, does anyone know of a work around.

Looks to me that you have a straight forward 1:N relationship from top to bottom.
There's however one confusing thing for Access and that's a table named "Form". This is a reserved word and can cause trouble. Best to use for every table a prefix like:
tblProcedure, tblWorkInstruct ion, tblForm, etc.
That's the "safe" way.

Hello,
I have a situation with MS Access 2000 in which I need to display report
data in spreadsheet orientation (much like a datasheet view for a form). If
you think of the report in terms of what a spreadsheet might show, the
column names will actually be dynamic, based on data from a SQL Server 2000
database. The row data will also come from the same database. So in this
case, I will have a main report and a subreport. I've already tried...
