On a form I create a new button and take options to run a query. It creates a macro to run the query I wanted. I expected to see a click event with:

stDocName = "#04a my query name here"
DoCmd.OpenQuery stDocName, acNormal, acEdit

Thanks,
Doug
 
You may convert the macro to VBA if you prefer

Hope This Helps, PH.

How are ya DSFord . . .

Surely [blue]"#04a my query name here"[/blue] is not a query name ... albeit even in a macro? ...

See Ya! . . . . . .

Be sure to see faq219-2884 [blue]Worthy Reading![/blue] [thumbsup2]

If you let Access convert the macro to VBA, you get very generic VBA. You may want to clean it up a bit so it's easier to read.

If the square peg won't fit in the round hole, sand off the corners.
