Having a DLOOKUP issue where it constantly returns a null value.

I have the following code on my form and the first part does work:

Private Sub cboApptVehicleYMM_AfterUpdate()
Me.txtVehicleMakeModel = Trim(Mid([ApptVehicleYMM], 6)) ' This Works
Me.txtSvcPriceCode = DLookup("[ST_PricCode]", "qryApptPricCode", "Trim([ST_Make_Model]) = 'Trim(Mid(Me.[ApptVehicleYMM], 6))'")
End Sub

The qry is qryApptPricCode with two fields (both txt):
ST_Make_Model
ST_PricCode

I used the Trim function on the [ST_Make_Model] as I found some input had a space or two at the end, I figured this would eliminate that.

Thanks
Mike
 
Try:

Code:
 Me.txtSvcPriceCode = DLookup("[ST_PricCode]", "qryApptPricCode", "Trim([ST_Make_Model]) = '[highlight #FCE94F]" & [/highlight]Trim(Mid(Me.[ApptVehicleYMM], 6))[highlight #FCE94F] & "[/highlight]'")

And since you use [tt]qryApptPricCode[/tt] query, why don't you [tt]Trim[/tt] data in the fields when this query is created?

Thanks Andrzejek [thanks]

Works like a charm. I will look at updating it to do the Trim in the query.
