Pass Form Name To Do Filter

[ahd2008]

HI,

I use the below code to filter records of the courses sub form

[Forms]![courses].Filter = "Courses.[Course Type] like '" & TypeofCourses & "'" & " and courses.[Course Title] like '" & CourseTitle & "'"
[Forms]![courses].FilterOn = True
 

I works fine with me, however when i wanted to used a varialbe instead of using the name of the form (courses)
i got stumped by the error 2450- MS Access cant find the form frm referred to in a macro expression or visual basic code

Dim frm as string
 
frm="courses"
[Forms]![courses].Filter = "Courses.[Course Type] like '" & TypeofCourses & "'" & " and courses.[Course Title] like '" & CourseTitle & "'"
[Forms]![courses].FilterOn = True

Does anyone have any idea?

thx in advance

There are several Methods that will work, this is but 1:

Dim frm As Form
 
Set frm = Forms![courses]
 
With frm
  .Filter = "Courses.[Course Type] like '" & TypeofCourses & "'" & _
            " and courses.[Course Title] like '" & CourseTitle & "'"
  .FilterOn = True
End With
