Last one for today guys ... promise!! lol

What's wrong with this structure:

bolFound = DLookup("[li_date_time]", "qry_tblLoggedIn", "[li_user_name] = "
& strCurrentUserName)

qry_tblLoggedIn is a RWOP query based on a locked table. It does show the
correct rows (and has the field li_user_name)

The error is '... Automation Object Does Not Contain 'irjs' (which is the
contents of the current user var).

Any suggestions gratefully received!
 
You need to delimit the string value with quotation marks or apostrophes.

DLookup("[li_date_time]", "qry_tblLoggedIn", "[li_user_name] = " & Chr(34) &
strCurrentUserName & Chr(34))

OR
DLookup("[li_date_time]", "qry_tblLoggedIn", "[li_user_name] = """ &
strCurrentUserName & """")

OR
DLookup("[li_date_time]", "qry_tblLoggedIn", "[li_user_name] = '"
strCurrentUserName & "'")

Thanks John - knew my syntax was out (that's a seriously complicated
structure)!

Always great support here.

Cheers

I hope you understood that I meant to use ONE of the three variations and
not all three.

They were three alternatives to having the text properly delimited.

Ha yes John lmao, I did realise.

Thanks for the input again. I have saved all three of your options for
future use.

Muchas Gracias
