David-
1) Unless you embed the value for Me.txtLocationID in SQL generated in code, you have to use the full Forms! Reference. The SQL engine has no clue what Me is.
2) I would have to see your code to explain why using a variable didn't work.
3) Yes, but see the answer to question 2.

OK, so I did this and it works but it leads me to a couple of questions for the purpose of education. I made a text box on the form frmSampleGroupsAndUsers (this is the "called" form), and named it txtLocationID and assigned it the value Forms!frmConfigureSampleGroupsAndUsers!cboSelectSite.column(1). For now I have left the control visible so I can see that it is working.
In the query criteria I first tried Me.txtLocationID and I got an empty query result. I changed to "long Hand" and put Forms!frmSampleGroupsAndUsers.txtLocationID and it works fine. question 1 is why would Me.txtLocationID not work?
Question 2 is why would the text box method work, but creating a variable in the event code not work. I had already tried creating a variable lngLocationID, assigning the column(1) value to the variable, and using the variable in the query. No joy there.
Question 3 is, could I have passed the value I needed with OpenArgs and used OpenArgs as the query criteria?
So much to learn...
