    criteria not working

    You need to delimit the date criteria with # signs. Try using this: And ([workdate] Between #" & [Forms]![frmloginout]![txtStartDate] & "# And #" & [Forms]![frmloginout]![txtEndDate] & "#")

    report expression(as copied from microsoft help example) syntax error

    I believe Currency is a reserved word. Name the text box that holds the field Currency to txtCurrency and the change your expression to: =IIf(Me.txtCurrency = "YTL", "Yes", "No") Hopefully this will work.

    Colour Negative fields in Report

    You can use the format property of the text box control. Try this: $#,##0.00[Black];-$#,##0.00[Red];0;" " The format property is broken down like this: positive value; negative value; zero value; null value I hope this helps.

    open text files with spaces in pathname

    You could try a couple of things..... First try and take out the "\" in the file name. If that doesn't work, try using the full name of the file including the drive and directories (i.e. "C:\Program Files\gen detail.txt"). Hope this helps... John

    new field using ALTER

    Try and use the Float data type: ALTER TABLE VENDORS ADD last_column Float; You can't specify the size (or decimal places) of numbers, that's why they have so many different types. You should look up SQL Data Types in the help file. John
