I have the following code behind an unbound textbox field, when selected I
get a runtime error 3075 (missing operator).

The variable strErr "FLAGERROR" could be in any field in table that was
either Chr(9), (10), or (13).

Trying to get the form to only show records where "FLAGERROR" may exists.

The Code:

Private Sub cmdErrFlags_Click()

Dim db As Database
Dim strErr As String
Dim strBegin As String
Dim strWhere As String
Dim strWhere2 As String
Dim strWhole As String

Set db = CurrentDb()

strErr = "FLAGERROR"
strBegin = "Update SNDL Set ERRORFLD = -1 "
strWhere = "Where ACTIVITY Like "
strWhere2 = "*" & strErr & "*" & ";"

strWhole = strBegin & strWhere & strWhere2

Debug.Print strWhole
'strWhole is:  Update SNDL Set ERRORFLD = -1 Where ACTIVITY Like
*FLAGERROR*;

DoCmd.RunSQL strWhole            'Run-time error 3075
'Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression 'ACTIVITY Like
*FLAGERROR*'.

End Sub

Thanks,
