...is opened, the event procedure I have got working so far works for any given row. The code goes...
Private Sub Form_Open(Cancel As Integer)
'***** set up the rows to visible if there is a task defined
If Task1 > "" Then
Task1.Visible = True
Complete1.Visible = True...
...stage without your help in clarifying my mind as to what I was trying, wanting and needing to do - so a star! Your efforts were not wasted and I thoroughly appreciate them.

Can anyone save the sanity of me, and thus the wife and cat?

...clicking 'Start Filter'.
I could live with this. But...
Is there a way of creating a recordset that is empty on opening and then populating it with the result of the filter?
Chris

Aaahh!!
A bit of progress!
The form opens - with old data visible. But as soon as I click 'Start Filter' the sheet clears.
Now to try and start with a clean sheet!

...shows the last filter used - so I have this sort of feeling that if there was a way of clearing this as I loaded the QBF, I'd be on my way. But I've not found a way. Yet.

Interesting...
That last one lost me some data!

Hi THWatson
Had a go at that.
As soon as I start the filter, I get the last entry (still); but, interestingly, when I apply the filter, the form goes blank with no result!
Hmmm...
*************************************
OK, I'm stoopid. But I'm good at it!
*************************************
...to remember the last query.
Is there a way of opening a new QBF which (programmatically) clears the last query on opening?
I bet it's there, but I just can't find it!
TIA
Chris

...once you know how!
NorthNone. That's a sort of way I was trying to go - with a hidden attribute coming in. I got in even more of a tangle!
Again, megathanks for the help!

*************************************
...However, using this method, there is a distinct 'flash' between forms.
Is there a way to open the new form first and then close the old one 'underneath' it.
TIA

...a length of 15 characters, the overall Customer Database table (that it is copied to) has a field length of 6 characters!
See, I told you I was stoopid. Now I've proved it! [blush]
*************************************
OK, I'm stoopid. But I'm good at it...
Refresh please?
I'm still stuck on this one.
I've tried recreating the table and even giving it another name; and I'm still stuck at 6 characters!
*************************************
OK, I'm stoopid. But I'm good at it!
*************************************
...I'm puzzled as to why this might have an effect. Other combos on the same form have the same properties, but not the same fault! [sadeyes]
Could it be a little deeper than this?
*************************************
OK, I'm stoopid. But I'm good at it!
*************************************
...Has anyone seen anything like this before? If so, how did you cure it please?
I'm on UK time, and finishing for the night. I will catch the thread again tomorrow.
TIA
