access thread: Filter in Report


Message #1 by "Pam McMillin" <pmcmillin@m...> on Mon, 26 Feb 2001 16:31:19
I have done this before, but can't seem to remember how.



I need to do a filter on a field where it begins with one of three letters.



I tired something like this:



[strWE/AFE] LIKE (W, E, N)



I am sure it is just a syntax error.  I need it where field strWE/AFE 

startes with either a W E or N.



Thanks

The filter property of your report should look like this:



[strWE/AFE] like "[W,E,N]*"



Note the square brackets and the '*' wildcard.



You also need to ensure that the 'Filter On' property is set to 'Yes'
