Hello,
I'm very new to access. I have a company that has a data base for open
projects. They print this out each week for a weekly meeting and it can be
about 50 or more pages. In order to keep this down to a dull roar they
delete the records that contain closed projects. I'm sure you can see the
problem in deleting these records when an issue arises and how helpful it
would be to refer back to the record with the project information.

I would think there should be some way to hide the closed records or set the
print area to print only the open projects. Anyone know of a way to
accomplish this?

Thank you so much,
Christle

Your report should be based on a query that pulls all the appropriate
records. Just change that query to exclude any records with an entry in the
closed date field.

Thank you so much Rick, I've given the information to the company and if I
hear back I'll let you know their success. Thanks for pointing out the
obvious :))
