Do.Cmd Open Form WHERE question

Hello, this is my first post. Thanks for reading.

I am trying to open a form on a Click event where the records displayed are what the user has selected on several form combo boxes. Some of the combo boxes contain text and some numbers. I am getting a data mismatch erorr in Ac07 when I try to combine both data types in the same Where condition. Here is my code:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. Dim strWhere As String
  2.  
  3. strWhere = "[ID] = " & Me.cboID Or "[Type] = '" & Me.cboType & "'"
  4.  
  5. DoCmd.OpenForm "MyForm", , , strWhere, acFormEdit
  6.  
Could it be because I am declaring this as a string? I tried a CInt(ID) but that didn't seem to work, but maybe my syntax was wrong.

Thank you for your help!

The string wasnt being built correctly, try this instead:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. strWhere = "[ID] = " & Me.cboID & " Or [Type] = '" & Me.cboType & "'"
