htm pages in access

[priapus]

This might be simple. I have a form with 50 records, each containing about 50 fields. I created an html page (in access) based on the same query that the form is based on (with the same 20 fields). When I open the page from the pages section i can scroll through the records, seeing each of the 50 records and all the info in each of the 20 fields. same with the form. yada yada, dandy dandy. but then i put a hyperlink button on the form that opens the page. it won't open the corresponding html page. No, that's wrong...it does indeed open the html page, but instead of seeing all the nice info in each box i get the #name? what am i doing wrong? thanks much in advance to all you smarter than i.

You can try to check that the textbox's Data Control Source is pointing to a valid source.

Eh...I don't know if I explained it right. There's a form and a page based on the same query, each with the same text boxes and everything. So the page and form both have the same number of records with the same info. i put a hyperlink button on the form that opens the page. but no matter what record on the form you're looking at when you hit the hyperlink, it goes to the first record of the page query, not the record corresponding to the current form record. I figure there's gotta be some way to have it open the right page. thanks.

maybe a better way to phrase this would be: is there any way (in general) to open up a query of pages to a specific record?
