Problem with Switchboard Code

Guest

I have somehow played around with my code and messed up my switchboard.
Now when i press on the buttons to create new image or view images it comes
up with a search keywords parameter which i do not want. I would like it to
go straight to the form not come up with a parameter. The code is as follows
Option Compare Database

Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
' Minimize the database window and initialize the form.

' Move to the switchboard page that is marked as the default.
Me.Filter = "[ItemNumber] = 0 AND [Argument] = 'Default' "
Me.FilterOn = True

End Sub

Private Sub Form_Current()
' Update the caption and fill in the list of options.

Me.Caption = Nz(Me![ItemText], "")
FillOptions

End Sub

Private Sub FillOptions()
' Fill in the options for this switchboard page.

' The number of buttons on the form.
Const conNumButtons = 8

Dim con As Object
Dim rs As Object
Dim stSql As String
Dim intOption As Integer

' Set the focus to the first button on the form,
' and then hide all of the buttons on the form
' but the first. You can't hide the field with the focus.
Me![Option1].SetFocus
For intOption = 2 To conNumButtons
Me("Option" & intOption).Visible = False
Me("OptionLabel" & intOption).Visible = False
Next intOption

' Open the table of Switchboard Items, and find
' the first item for this Switchboard Page.
Set con = Application.CurrentProject.Connection
stSql = "SELECT * FROM [Switchboard Items]"
stSql = stSql & " WHERE [ItemNumber] > 0 AND [SwitchboardID]=" &
Me![SwitchboardID]
stSql = stSql & " ORDER BY [ItemNumber];"
Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
rs.Open stSql, con, 1 ' 1 = adOpenKeyset

' If there are no options for this Switchboard Page,
' display a message. Otherwise, fill the page with the items.
If (rs.EOF) Then
Me![OptionLabel1].Caption = "There are no items for this switchboard
page"
Else
While (Not (rs.EOF))
Me("Option" & rs![ItemNumber]).Visible = True
Me("OptionLabel" & rs![ItemNumber]).Visible = True
Me("OptionLabel" & rs![ItemNumber]).Caption = rs![ItemText]
rs.MoveNext
Wend
End If

' Close the recordset and the database.
rs.Close

Hi Silver76,

Usually if you are being prompted for a parameter, there is a problem with
the query. Check your SQL code and make sure your field names are correct.

Without knowing what changes you made, if the switchboard opens and
nothing fails until you click one of the buttons, it sounds like
changes were made to the Switchboard table. The OpenForm command gets
it's arguments from the table, if you're prompted for a parameter,
either something in the tables Argument field has changed, or the form
being opened has changed.
