Printing current data only

P

Phil Jones

I have a form that I need to print, 2 of the fields only hold virtual values
and as such are not saved to any tables, is their a way in which I can
include this data in a report from a form?.

Many thanks
Phil

Here is what I came up with. This should help you.

Create a new DB. Create a blank form. Create 2 text
boxes. Name 1 text0 and the other text1. Save the form as
Form1.

Create a blank report. Add a text box. Open the
properties and under the data tab in the control source
box put =[Forms]![Form1]![Text0]
Save the report as report1

Now open the form and type something in text0 and click
on text1 box. This saves the typed text on the form. Now
open the report. The text box on the report should
display the data from the form. The form must be open as
you open the report however. You can minimize it if you
like, or close it after the report has opened.
