Go into the report, click on "sorting and grouping", and add a
grouping for quarter with either a header or footer line.
If you're using DatePart to retrieve the quarter number for you,
it appears that Access will return a calendar quarter and not a
fiscal quarter [just in case it makes a difference].

1636.2 | Module1 table parameter input required? | 55028::VAART_R | | Fri Apr 25 1997 16:12 | 21 |
| I've a problem with sub-reports which I hope I can make clear as
follows:
A table contains information of modules, being Books, Scenarios and
Procedures. Each record is Identified by a code starting with B, S or
P. To connect these tables I had to duplicate the module table in the
Relations window. These resulted in a 'module', 'module_1' and a
'module_2' table object.
The same applies to queries i've build. Sofar it worked fine for me,
however in one report I select a book and print scenarios as detail
lines. As part of the detail lines I included a subreport. This report
is Scenario - Procedure report.
To connect these reports i've set for master link: module.module_id and
for child link: module_1.module_id.
When running the report a window is poping up and requesting an entry
for module1. Just pressing OK gives the report I want.
How can I avoid the pop-up?
Roderick.

1636.3 | Unused sorting order parameters? | NSIC01::KLERK | Thunderbirds are Go | Tue Apr 29 1997 10:21 | 8 |

I recall that when a report is made and you specified some sorting order
(not all of which you may now still use), a popup would come up. Removing
the no longer needed sorting parameters also got rid of the popup.
Would this apply to your report?

1636.4 | It's a feature | OSEC::pervy.mco.dec.com::GILBERT | Oh. | Tue Apr 29 1997 15:57 | 5 |
| Essentially Access is saying it wants you to specify the value of an item that
isn't defined explicitly. A typical mistake is to mis-spell the name of a field
used in a query. Access thinks you want to specify it at run-time.

1636.5 | possibly this | XSTACY::PATTISON | A rolling stone gets the worm | Wed Apr 30 1997 13:36 | 12 |

I had a problem like this recently, where I had a field called
tblMachine.ID in the LinkChildFields. A popup kept coming up asking
me for a value.
I changed the underlying query to return an alias, such as
tblMachine.ID AS MachineID
and then used MachineID to link the subreport. Problem went away.
I never bothered to find out why, but thought I'd mention it.

| Re -.3,4,5
I managed to solve the problem using the answer in .5.
Thanks.
