VBA: Select Next Record on Subform After Refresh
What I'd like to do, is to run the report, and on closing the report, refresh the subform (contained within a separate form beneath the dialog box), and select the next record in the subform.
Summary:
1. Run report from dialog box with selection criteria.
2. On report close, refresh the subform within the underlying form.
3. Select the next record that follows the one previously run.
Hopefully, this makes some kind of sense. I think this SHOULD be relatively easy, but I'm getting stuck on syntax.
Please let me know what else I can provide.

Why you need to refresh? Has its date changed?
When you close the report, the focus returns to the form and OnActive event of the form fires.
I will give you more detailed info later. In a public variable, you will store the PK of the record you want the form to show e=when the report is closed. Then in OnActive event, you can use bookmark to move to the record with PK you have stored in the public variable we talked about.

for now put this in a module outside the form, later on we may be able to bring inside the form in question.
In on Active event of the main form (not subform) have:
Me!SubromName,FormRefreshS
In subform after decorations have
Public Sub FormRefreshSubform()
MsgBox "FormRefreshSubform fires ok"
End Sub
Apply these until first you get "FormRefreshSubform fires ok" message. We will continue.
