Hi, Crystal!

A couple months ago you offered to walk me through a tricky problem. I
think I'm ready if you're still willing!

I'm using a form to filter and run a report. The form has a combobox
and a listbox. The list box displays records that are related to the
parent record as displayed in the combobox. I'm trying to use the
listbox to select child records to display in the report.

Form:
frmQueryPKWTCalcsFGs_Select
SELECT tblProfiles.txtProfileID AS PKWTID, tblProfiles.Description,
tblProfiles.Type FROM tblProfiles WHERE
(((tblProfiles.Type)="PKCALC"));

Combobox:
cbPKWTID
SELECT tblProfiles.txtProfileID, tblProfiles.Version,
tblProfiles.Description FROM tblProfiles WHERE
(((tblProfiles.Type)="PKCALC")) ORDER BY tblProfiles.txtProfileID;

Listbox:
lstFGID
SELECT tblPKProfilesAssociations.ProfilesAssociations AS FGIDs,
tblProfiles.Description FROM tblProfiles INNER JOIN
tblPKProfilesAssociations ON tblProfiles.txtProfileID =
tblPKProfilesAssociations.ProfilesAssociations WHERE
(((tblPKProfilesAssociations.txtProfileID)=[Forms]!
[frmQueryPKWTCalcsFGs_Select].[Form]![cbPKWTID])) ORDER BY
tblPKProfilesAssociations.ProfilesAssociations;

Here's the preview button:

Private Sub cmdPreview_Click()
Dim i As Integer
Dim strForm As String

For i = 1 To CurrentProject.AllForms.Count
If CurrentProject.AllForms(i - 1).IsLoaded Then
strForm = CurrentProject.AllForms(i - 1).Name
If strForm <> "frmQueryPKWTCalcsFGs_Select" And strForm <>
"Marzetti Main Menu" Then
DoCmd.Close acForm, strForm, acSaveNo
End If
End If
Next i

On Error GoTo Err_Handler
'Purpose: Open the report filtered to the items selected in the
list box.
'Author: Allen J Browne, 2004. http://allenbrowne.com
Dim varItem As Variant 'Selected items
Dim strWhere As String 'String to use as WhereCondition
Dim strFGID As String 'Description of WhereCondition
Dim lngLen As Long 'Length of string
Dim strDelim As String 'Delimiter for this field type.
Dim strDoc As String 'Name of report to open.
strDelim = """"
strDoc = "rptPKWeightCalculatorASSsFGs_Select"
'Loop through the ItemsSelected in the list box.
With Me.lstFGID
For Each varItem In .ItemsSelected
If Not IsNull(varItem) Then
'Build up the filter from the bound column.
strWhere = strWhere & strDelim & .ItemData(varItem) &
strDelim & ","
'Build up the FGIDs from the text in the FGIDs column.
strFGID = strFGID & """" & .Column(0, varItem) & """,
"""
End If
Next
End With
'Remove trailing comma. Add field name, IN operator, and brackets.
lngLen = Len(strWhere) - 1
If lngLen > 0 Then
strWhere = "[PKWTID] IN (" & Left$(strWhere, lngLen) & ")"
lngLen = Len(strDescrip) - 2
If lngLen > 0 Then
strFGID = "FGIDs: " & Left$(strFGID, lngLen)
End If
End If
DoCmd.OpenReport strDoc, acViewPreview,
WhereCondition:=strWhere, OpenArgs:=strFGID
Exit_Handler:
Exit Sub
Err_Handler:
If Err.Number <> 2501 Then 'Ignore "Report cancelled" error.
MsgBox "Error " & Err.Number & " - " & Err.Description, ,
"cmdPreview_Click"
End If
Resume Exit_Handler

End Sub

Clicking the button opens the report however every control is either
blank or contains #Error. I placed a textbox called OpenArgs in the
report and it properly displays the selected
IDs. I feel like I'm about 1/4 of the way home.

If you're still willing I've done my homework and am ready (I think).

Thanks!
