Data Access Page. Please Help...

I am using a DAP to present data to my users on a sharepoint site. The user
opens the DAP from the sharepoint site, and goes thru some selections to
"expand" the data to what they want to see. 3 filtering hearders.
Location opens Unit
Unit opens Date
Date "expands" to show the data for that date.

My issue is the Date should be listing all dates available in the table the
DAP is linked to but is not updating as days pass.

How can I get my DAP to update the available viewable data as teh data is
appended to the table?

Thanks for any help...

I don't have a solution for you other than to say that DAP is not
supported in Access 2007, and that the upcoming Access 2010 (now in
beta) has GREAT new support for deploying Access forms in a SharePoint
environment. You should really consider upgrading rather than
continuing to invest in what experts called "a version 0.9
implementation". Be adventurous, download the beta to a test machine
or a virtual machine, and impress management with your new form.

I think you omitted the phrase "incredibly charitable" right between
"what" and "experts".

Thanks, I am scheduled for the upgrade to Office07 in January or February. I
do not have virtual rights to anything my comapny might find useful to me so
me downloading anything is out of the question.
I was hoping to find a solution in the interim. But sense no one wants to or
can help me with this I guess I'll have to wait for the crappy Office07. I
have 07 at home and can't stand the ribbon. Until I re-learn EVERYTHING in
the menus of 07, I will be forced by miscrosoft to waist a multitude of hours
on having to go thru help just to find an option that I know exactly where to
find in 2003 or 2000.
The over all program of 07 may be better than previous versions but it will
be a PNTA in the mean time.
