Access Reporting
Good Morning All! I have a question regarding a report I have built. A
little background... I have 19 different buildings showing student information. This report is page breaking by building number (01-19) and totaling by page the number of students. I have protected the database on my network so users from all buildings can access the DB in read mode only to retrieve their own reports. The problem is that when users from different buildings access the database and run the report, they get all 19 -per building pages. I would like to put a filter question (if it is possible) so when users click on the report, a box comes up allowing them to enter their builiding number and only get those pages that apply to them. Is this possible.? CAn anyone help?

Sure. Just put a criteria in the filter upon which your report is based.
In the criteria under the "building" field, simply put... Like * & [Enter Building Number to Report] Leaving the prompt blank will get you all the buildings. -- Rick B "Jcraig713" wrote in message ... Good Morning All!

I opened my report in design view, clicked view properties, changed my report filter to YEs (from no) entered the: Like * & [Enter Building Number to Report] into the filter field and when I run my report I get the following error: syntax error(missing operator) in query expression'(Like * & [Enter Building Number to Report])'. Any ideas? "Rick B" wrote: Sure. Just put a criteria in the filter upon which your report is based. In the criteria under the "building" field, simply put...

Also, it should read
= [Enter Building Number to Report] OR it can read like the following, IF the building number is a text field and you want to get any building where the characters entered match or ALL buildings if nothing is entered Like "*" & [Enter Building Number to Report] & "*" "Rick B" Anonymous wrote in message ...
