vb6, access97. I have a datareport which works fine until I try to put a search criteria into a date field. {Criteria for other fields OK). The SQL statement generated by the SQL designer looks fine to me. (But I am a beginner.) When saving the ammended query, I get this message: "To retrieve information for this Command, the Command must be executed. You may need to specify input parameter values in the Paramter tabe before the command is executed. Execution may add to or modify data in the database." Have no idea what to do with the Parameter Tab. Ther are no options presented, and all is greyed out. When I save it anyway, the msg is "MALFORMED GUID in query expression....." When running the program, of course, the report won't run, "Errors encountered". When I remove the criteria, everything is fine once again. As I said, I am a newbie, so it may take a fairly detailed answer to do me any good. If anyone can get me out of this jam, I would truly appreciate it.
