Saving information on reprot to new table?

Is there a way to save information on a report to a table. If so how?
Also would you be able to over write an existing file based on some
form of id? Could use any help thanks!

Wow Kyle... are you sure this isn't the evil twin speaking?

You would have learned some new words had Kyle been speaking. I just
pushed him away from the keyboard and erased them.

I on the other hand might have expanded my post with a reference to the
thread mapped below and a further suggestion that since you (Deercreek
the OP) seem unable to express yourself clearly, unwilling to try and,
in addition, rude to the extreme, IMO, the paid help of the MS geniuses
is likely to be a better route for you.

I will duly second Lyle/Kyle's statements as to the character of
deercreek. My knowledge is much less than that of most of the
contributors to this group (and I see a few celebrities here as well),
but I am always willing to impart whatever I can to those who want it.
However, there is a line that must be drawn between 'helping' and
'writing the database for you'.

deercreek reminds me of a kid I was in college with. The guy copied my
entire C++ final exam code while I was away from my computer (yes, I
should have locked it). In an ASP.NET class, the same kid took the code
I wrote for my final project in its entirety and was going to submit it
as his own before I wiped it off his drive. As I said, I am glad to
HELP, but I will not do the entire project for the asker. deercreek
seems to be displaying the traits that lead to such behavior.

Rude to the extreme? Am I missing something here Lyle? I followed the link
and, granted the OP seems to want you to do his work for him but I didn't
spot him being rude. :o)

Well, perhaps I have misinterpreted this exchange and more than perhaps
I should have just left the whole thing to Danny,

Ok I tried looking back at your code and you say that
you have the call GetCampDays in three places, but the
partial function you posted appears to be named
CalcWorkDays. If that is the case, it could cause the
text box not to update. Make sure the text box is
calling the correct function.

**********
Deercreek

THE MODULE NAME IS GETCAMPDAYS

**********

This was at the end of an exchnage during which Deercreek did not give
information and answered suggestions with "Nope didn't work either."
This is the only "case" of Deercreek's using Upper Case. DL was very
patiently, (beyond anything I could offer) trying to help him.
Deercreek shouted at him. I call this rude to the extreme. Note that in
the shouting Deercreek indicated that he !!!!called a *module* three
times!!! It's one thing to shout. It's another thing to shout
deliberately. And it's a third thing to shout something really stupid.
And it's a fourth thing to shout at someone who is very patiently,
despite your reluctance to explain things clearly, is trying to help
you.

But if you would like to help Deercreek I shall just stand back and
admire you.
(and refere to you as "Saintly" Keith henceforth :-))

PS:

Are you going to tackle:

Is there a way to save information on a report to a table? If so how?

or

Would you be able to over write an existing file based on some form of id?

first?

I hope you explain your answers fully. I am anxious to know what the
questions mean for starters.

I thought that's what you were referring to, but wasn't sure. I almost felt
bad for being impatient with him. Problems like this intrigue me and I was
interested to get to its source, but I didn't want to have to work harder
than he did to resolve his problem.

I wanted to write back to say he could call the module anything he wants.
Module names are the single most irrelevant thing in Microsoft Access. Go
ahead, name your modules basMurderNMayhem or WhatTheHeck_functions.
I suppose it would be wrong to name them Tables, Forms or Reports, but
the compiler will warn you if you attempted such a foolish thing.

So, I know what the module name is, but not the procedure. He might as
well given me other extraneous and useless information, such as the time
the module was created, the color of shirt he was wearing at the time
and the dog's last cholesterol reading.

It doesn't seem like that long ago that I was asking simple questions at
this newsgroup. As a rule, no one is chastised for being dumb. If so, I'd
have abandoned this group out of shame years ago. However, if you want
to get answers to complicated questions, you're going to have to cooperate
and communicate clearly.

I didn't take offense at the shouting, but I don't deny Lyle's right to be.
As for me, I just prefer to pursue conversations that are easy to follow
with those who work hard on their communication skills.

Ah, right. I sometimes and probably wrongly give people the benefit of the
doubt when they "shout", I do take your point.
But if you would like to help Deercreek I shall just stand back and

OK but the name GETCAMPDAYS is giving me a confusing image ;-p so I might
just pass.

I understand that -- I did phone support for a software company and
people would say things like "Do this for me." Umm.. no I'm here to
*help* you do what you need to do, not to *do it for you*. Significant
difference there. Some people don't seem to understand that if you're
asking for help, it's up to you to be polite and describe the problem
well enough so that someone else can solve it...

Oh well.
