Hi I would like a window to pop up 3 months, (or 90 days) from the date the
client is created just saying a reminder, is this possible? And how would I
go about doing this?
 
When and where would you want that to happen?
In any case, the basic logic would be:

If DateDiff("d",[ClientAdded], Date) >= 90 And [FollowUpFlag] = False Then

You do need a field to know you have already done the follow up.
 
This sounds very complicated, would the user have to check the field
FollowUpFlag to say they've done the follow up?

Hi Klatuu,

I came up with this code through a website, is there anything obviously
wrong with it as the debugger is coming up when ever the script runs... Expr1
is the date I calculated that the followup should happen on

Private Sub Form_Load()

Dim intStore As Integer

intStore = DCount("[Client ID]", "[Tbl Client Information]", "[Expr1]" <=
Now())
If intStore = 0 Then Exit Sub
Else
If MsgBox("There are " & intStore & " uncompleted jobs" & _
vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Would you like to see these now?", _
vbYesNo, "You Have Uncomplete Jobs...") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.Minimize
DoCmd.OpenForm "Follow Up Report", acNormal

Else
Exit Sub
End If
End If


End Sub



Thanks Emma

Try it this way.
Is Expr1 a field in your table? It looks more like something from a query
build with the query builder. Be sure you are using the correct domain name.
Private Sub Form_Load()

Dim intStore As Integer

intStore = DCount("[Expr1]", "[Tbl Client Information]", "[Expr1] #" <=
Now & "#")
If intStore > 0 Then
If MsgBox("There are " & intStore & " uncompleted jobs" & _
vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Would you like to see these now?", _
vbYesNo, "You Have Uncomplete Jobs...") = vbYes Then
DoCmd.Minimize
DoCmd.OpenForm "Follow Up Report", acNormal

End If
End Sub
