Issue with Ms access Reports

Question

hi,

I am trying to preview a report of the current tracking number which is on the main form(main form name is:frmReviewReleaseLogWrapper) by using a command button. Each tracking number has different part numbers, so each tracking number has many records in the DB table (Depending upon the number of partnumbers, that is each partnumber has a record) I wrote the following code and it is not working, It is just displaying report name and column names and not the records.

Code is as follows:

Private Sub Command225_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_Command225_Click

    Dim stDocName As String

    DoCmd.OpenReport "rptEventLog", acPreview, , "[TrackingNumber] = Forms!frmReviewReleaseLogWrapper"

Exit_Command225_Click:
    Exit Sub

Err_Command225_Click:
    MsgBox Err.Description
    Resume Exit_Command225_Click

End Sub

What's the name of the control on the frmReviewReleaseLogWrapper form that contains the tracking number? You need to reference it in your OpenReport statement, like so:

DoCmd.OpenReport "rptEventLog", acPreview, , _
    "[TrackingNumber] = Forms!frmReviewReleaseLogWrapper!txtField"

Incidentally, you might do better to give your command button a name that reflects its actual function, so it'll be easier to find later.
