Wrong data type for one of the arguments error. I don't understand

Hello,

I've been trying to modify a database I downloaded from the Microsoft site
entitled
'Inventory management database.mdb'. Using Macros developed and I've
modified, a macro opens up a list of reports - which can be opened up by
clicking on them. However, when I try to open up one of my reports which
appears on the list, I get the following error message:

"An expression you entered is the wrong data type for one of the arguments

You tried to run a macro or use a method to carry out am action, but an
expression
evaluated the wrong data type."

I guessed this meant I had perhaps specified the wrong datatype in my table,
rom where I had written my list of reports, but this all seemed okay when I
checked and compared it with the working original. I had specified text (and
autonumber for the report ID number)

Can anyone point me in the right direction with this?

Many thanks.

Adam
