Here's some code from a database I wrote about 10 years ago. The code was
adapted from a KB article (I think) but I can't find it now:
Option Compare Database 'Use database order for string comparisons.
Option Explicit
' Constant for maximum number of columns XTab query would
' create plus 1 for a Totals column.
Const conTotalColumns = 13
' Variables for Database object and Recordset.
Dim dbsReport As Database
Dim rstReport As Recordset
' Variables for number of columns and row and report totals.
Dim intColumnCount As Integer
Dim lngRgColumnTotal(1 To conTotalColumns) As Long
Dim lngReportTotal As Long
Private Sub Detail1_Format(Cancel As Integer, FormatCount As Integer)
' Place values in text boxes and hide unused text boxes.
Dim intX As Integer
' Verify that not at end of recordset.
If Not rstReport.EOF Then
' If FormatCount is 1, place values from recordset into text boxes
' in detail section.
If Me.FormatCount = 1 Then
For intX = 1 To intColumnCount
' Convert Null values to 0.
Me("Col" + Format(intX)) = xtabCnulls(rstReport(intX - 1))
Next intX
' Hide unused text boxes in detail section.
For intX = intColumnCount + 2 To conTotalColumns
Me("Col" + Format(intX)).Visible = False
Next intX
' Move to next record in recordset.
rstReport.MoveNext
End If
End If
End Sub
