I need to generate a report from a form using a control button that only uses
the data currently displayed on the form. I have the basics of form building
down, but I keep getting every record in my data table. Thanks.

The fourth argument of the OpenReport method is for an optional WHERE clause
(without the word "where"). You need to put an expression in that argument that
filters the report on the values in the form that will select that record. If
there is a single primary key then that is all you need...

DoCmd.OpenReport "ReportName",,,"PKField = " & Me.PKField
