Hello,
I'm not sure if this is the correct area to be posting this in, but I thought I would see what help I can get. I've inherited a database (built by someone no longer with the company) that is used for recruiting purposes, but there is a portion of it that appears to not be functioning properly.
In the database there is a button to e-mail roster information, but upon clicking it, it gives an error of "Invalid Use of Null" (something similar to that - I don't have the exact error at this time which I know would be helpful).
When doing a debug of that error, it highlights the following portion of code:
Looking at the code, I was able to see the following sections that appear to work in conjunction with each other
The hightlighted area mentioned points to a module where the following was found:
As mentioned, I inherited this from someone else and I'm just trying to fix this portion of the database as it could prove helpful. I'm just trying to get a general idea as to what is holding up getting the e-mail roster button to work (and hopefully get it fixed). Let me know if there is any additional information.
Thanks in advance!
