from what date error

Hi,
I am new to access

I created the form and report from Allen Browne's Frmwhat Date the way
he
has described but when i preview report it shows
StartDate: name?
Enddate: name?
am i suppose to attach this form or report to some table or query if
so how
do i do that? and also how do i attach this to my report since my
whole database is based on dates i need weekly matrics on reports.

its form project initation date to date of compelation but in between
it goes thru various stages of dates that are scheledule with vendors
for testing and turning up the telephonne lines. i will be needing to
know how many orders we have received , how many completed, deleted
before successful completion, items due in 1,2,3,5 or 10 days.

Any hepl is greatly appreciated

Thanks,

Are you using Method 1 (parameter query) in this article:
http://allenbrowne.com/casu-08.html

If so, at step 4 you added a text box to the report and set its properties
like this:
Control Source =[StartDate]
Format Short Date
Name txtStartDate

The name you used in the query must match exactly. For example, if you used
a space in the name in the query, you must do the same on the report.

Hi Allen,

i am using Method 2 also please help me how do i use this From what
date in my database i mean how do i attach this report to my database.

Thanks

Apr 11 '07 #3
Okay, if you used method 2, make sure the form is still open until the
report is closed.

I did not understand the question about attaching the report to your
database. Presumably you already have the report in your database.

That suggests you do not have a text box named txtStartDate on your form.

You will find that writing code is very pedantic.

If you have a text box named
txt startdate
(i.e. the name contains a space), it won't match.

You will need to handle this kind of debugging yourself: we cannot do it for
you here, as we cannot even see your database.

Be sure to include this line at the top of your module:
Option Explicit

Then choose Compile on the Debug menu (in the code window), and solve any
errors before you try to run the code.
