Printing a Tardy slip from a database

Hello,

I have a question,  I have a database that holds the information on students at an elementary school. I would like to create a form, query, or macro that prints out a tardy slip that contains the student name, ID #, date and time. I was wondering if this was possible by just inputting the student's name or ID # and the form adding the rest to the form?

I would appreciate any help on this

I will try this out and get back to you. I dont have a form yet, but have been considering a combo box. What do you think about using a subform has the date/time field supplied automatically (Now( ) Command) and the student ID and Name field and a button that just prints the subform as long as the Name and ID fields are valid? Can that be accomplished in Access?

Thats what mine will do with the report.

"In design mode of the report put a control with a default value of = Now()"
