GoToRecord Sintax

G

Guest

Hello all,
I have a command bottom which takes the user to the record the user want to
go to.
I try to avoid filtering the records.
So, i think to use the GoToRecord Method.

I am not familiar with this method so I am requesting for help.

I though of the fowling code:
CDArt = InputBox(Message, Title)
DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acgoto, ArtCode = CDArt

But it is not working. I think it is because of the â€ArtCode = CDArt†part.

part.

If ArtCode is a text field, try

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acgoto, "ArtCode = '" & CDArt & "'"

Otherwise try

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acgoto, "ArtCode = " & CDArt

Hi tom,
Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately your suggestion is not working.
I get the following error message:
An expression at argument 4 has an invalid value.

I think the problem is that you're missing brackets around ArtCode. I think:


DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acgoto, "ArtCode = " & CDArt

should be :

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acgoto, "[ArtCode] = " & CDArt

Or actually

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acgoto, "[ArtCode] = '" & CDArt & "'"

Sorry! ;0)>

If ArtCode is a numeric field, remove the single quotes:

DoCmd.GoToRecord , , acgoto, "[ArtCode] = " & CDArt
