    A common technique that I use to make a more professional looking user interface for filtering data for a report in an MS Access database, is to create a form to ask for criteria for the report. One example would be a report that is used to show data for a particular time period.

    Step 1

    Create a query to feed data to the report. Add any necessary parameters (like the "between [start_date] and [end_date]" style) and test.

    Step 2

    Create the report, using the query from step 1 as the record source. Test the report thoroughly. Obviously, you will have to answer the parameter questions manually, one at a time.

    Step 3

    Create a form with a text box for the starting date and another text box for the ending date. Use the button wizard to add a button that will preview the report created in st

    Step 4

    Change the parameters in the query to this style:
    Between [forms]![myform]![txtStartDate] and [forms]![myform]![txtEndDate]

    That's it. And, no VBA coding was required.

    (you may need to put some code behind the button that will verify the values in the various fields before starting the report, this would require VBA - you could also use a combo box to collect data for the report criteria)
