ChenayiChiguvare,

Can you use subreports? Or maybe you'll need a Union query. You can use...
Between [Enter Start Date] and [Enter End Date] but without a wee bit more
information it's hard to say. Like what is your table structure? How are
they related to each other?

Are the tables all similar but have data for different periods? If so you
need to create a Union All query to join all 12 tables. Then use this query
as the record source for another query or the report.

Also if you do have a dozen tables with the same data, but from different
periods, you database is set up incorrectly. All the similar data should be
in the same table with something like a date field showing the period for
each record.
