Hi Al,
I am assuming you are using Access 2007 ...since prior versions do not
have layout view
acViewDesign 1 Design view
acViewLayout 6 Layout view
acViewNormal 0 (Default) Normal view
acViewPivotChart 4 PivotChart view
acViewPivotTable 3 PivotTable view
acViewPreview 2 Print Preview
acViewReport 5 Report view
these are constants for the View parameter of OpenReport
to get help for OpenReport, do this:
press Ctrl-G
this opens the debuG (Immediate) window
type --> OpenReport
and press the F1 key while you are on the word for context-sensitive help
you can also press the F1 key in your code on a keyword
Warm Regards,
Crystal
