So the goal of my code is to allow a user the option of querying their results using a start and end date (neither are required, but both have to be present for the query to run)
My code for the criteria looks like this: - Between IIf(IsDate([Forms]![Query Transaction Form]![StartDate]),[Forms]![Query Transaction Form]![StartDate],"*") And IIf(IsDate([Forms]![Query Transaction Form]![EndDate]),[Forms]![Query Transaction Form]![EndDate],"*")
Access keeps telling me its incorrect or too long, what can I do?

Based on your form name, I'm going to guess that you have a form with a button to run a query based on the values in the textboxes for your date range. If this is the case, then you are better off doing your validation as a test before running your query. I have never tried it, but I don't think that your query will work using the Between * And * which is what would happen if your data wasn't valid. You may need to change the SQL of your query depending on if there is a date provided or not.
How would I validate beforehand if I am allowing users to not enter a date and run the query based on all date ranges?

A similar approach might be : - Between Nz([Forms]![Query Transaction Form]![StartDate],#1/1/1900#) And Nz([Forms]![Query Transaction Form]![EndDate],#12/31/9999#)

Hello,
I have a foreign key constraint between two tables (Appointments and
MissedAppointmentReasons) and I'd like to allow null values in Appointments
table for the field containing the MissedAppointmentReason, but currently, I
get a Foreign Key Constraint Error when I try to add a record to the
Appointments table.
Any ideas how I can have the null values but still maintain the Foreign Key
Constraint?
