i have to make some crosstab queries but i have a little problem : i need
to use a criteria that comes from a form but that simply doesn't work (and
i know why !).  I would like to use the something like this
"[Forms]![SY_ASS DAYREPORT(SELECTION)]![Field33]" but i always have the
following error : can't bind name.  When i use it with a normal query there
is no problem.  Who can help me (i need tha criteria !!!).
PS : access 2.0 with win 3.11

The reason that Access can't bind the name is because it has a space in
it and parentheses. Remove them and there should be no problem. Also the
form must be open before the query is run. If DAYREPORT(SELECTION) is
not part of the form name, rather some kind of function, then you have
got it in the wrong place.

Good Luck!

Hi Marcel,

Have you define it as a parameter? It happens often that a problem like
that, in crosstab, is related to the fact that such parameter must be
correctly "type"d.

Hope it may help,

with a simpler field name on your form?
