Run-Time Error '6'

I've been getting a runtime error when i'm running one of my module in
vba in access.

strfield4 = CLng(strfield4)
strfield4 = rstin("amt_issued")<--this is where the errors
occurres.

the amt_issued is coming from another table and the data type is set
for DOUBLE.

Please advise? thank you.

is rstin a recordset? rstin.fields("amt_issued") perhaps? It's hard
to guess with too little information to go on. What's the error? What
did you declare strfield4 to be?

rstin is a recordset and i delcared strfield4 as a long.

First of all the correct syntax to refer to a recordset field is
rstin![amt_issued].

Second, just Dim strfield4 as Long.

Dim strfield4 as Long
Set rstin = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
strfield4 = rstin![amt_issued]

That should work fine. Access will automatically convert it from
double to long.

i have

Set rstin = db.OpenRecordset("tblsinkIN", dbOpenTable)

would that work too?

It should.
