User Input in ADP

[Drew]

I am trying to develop a report using ADP, and am having problems getting
user input onto the report. I need to get a date range to display on the
report (not filter the data, just display)... I just want a box to pop up
asking what dates, and the user enters the dates there, and then it prints
the report with those dates on it.

thanks,
Drew

You'll have to have the report pop-up a form (WindowMode:=acDialog) that
allows the user to enter the dates. When the user clicks the form's OK
CommandButton it sets the form's .Visible property to False. The report
reads the dates in the form's TextBoxes using an object reference, e.g.:

TextBox ControlSource: =Forms!frmDatesPopUp!txtFromDate
