[MS_AccessPros] Re: Dlookup Criteria

John,

I'm trying to use that as part of a filename in a transfer spreadsheet. Here is the code:

Dim stDocName As String

Dim MyForm As Form

stDocName = DLookup("TrailerDesc", "TempVIN")

Set MyForm = Screen.ActiveForm

DoCmd.SelectObject acTable, stDocName, True

DoCmd.TransferSpreadsheet acExport, acSpreadsheetTypeExcel9, _

"qryExportTempVIN", "S:\Licensing\" & Format(Date, "yyyy") & "\" & stDocName & _

".xls"

MsgBox _

"An Excel Spreadsheet has been created. It is S:\Licensing\TempVIN_mm_dd_yyyy.xls"

DoCmd.SelectObject acForm, MyForm.Name, False

Are you assigning the results of the lookup to something? Maybe wrong data type?? What does your code look like?

Duane,
It actually shows the contents of the field I want which is the description of the trailer but I didn't think anyone would know what that meant so I substituted Trailer Description in my question.

Doyce,

I'm not sure why your error states "Trailer Description" when this is not in your DLookup("TrailerDesc", "TempVIN") . Are you getting confused by field captions?

Subject: [MS_AccessPros] Dlookup Criteria

Hello Friends,
I'm trying to use DLookUp to return the value in a description field from a temp table where all records will have the same description in the field. Here is what I have DLookup("TrailerDesc", "TempVIN") but I don't know what to put in the criteria. Any record will do. There is a recordID which is the primary key. It is autonumber. I'm getting an error that says "My database cannot find the Trailer Description you referenced in the Object Name argument".
