Hi Bill,
how about processing the need in the OPEN event? And if there is nothing to report, then CANCEL it.
Warm Regards,
Crystal

In Access 2013, I have an "action items table". The table has 5 fields. ACTactID (Number, PK), ACTDate (Date/Time, Date of Action Item), ACTAction (text, Action item that needs to be addressed), ACTAgent (number, Agent ID) and ACTOpen (yes/no, to indicate if the action is still open)
Action Items are entered with the date they are due. The problem is that the list of action items only is only visible in a report or form view if a person voluntarily opens the report or form. Sometimes we forget to do this. Is there a way to have a function that reads the date and if the action item is due then the report or form opens automatically. I am thinking I would put it in the "On Open" event for the main form in the data base so that it opens first thing.
Each user has an ID and the report sorts the action items by the person ID. I have a query that lists the person current action items.
The query is called q_ActionItemsOpen. It calls all the fields in the table and sorts by Agent ID, Actions that are open and then in Date order.
Is there a way to have a function look through the records and if one of them are past due then the form or report opens.
Thanks for your help.
