I have a table in MS Access and one of the fields is the date for the entry. How do I make a report that only shows entries for that date?

    We the surfers of cyber world meet with so many people every day. Surfing the net is the best pastime one can ever develop, as internet has the most knowledge, a surfer will never have to wait for a answer. The vast knowledge of cyber world is nothing as compared to the cyber society that it gives. Internet is a community but so vast that we need a place to make conversation easy. What more can be better than a chat room for this purpose, well a chat room and a message board along with a forum is the best combination really. I was actually looking for a place where we can find all these things with a profile and photo brouse option. Finally I got this site, this place is a very nice community where we can share every thing online. And also about the leader board, I must tell it is great. The thought of the leader board is unique, as not to many people has thought about this thing. And the method of getting the leader is very different and one must check out this site once. The cyber culture is growing, and it is about time that we find our club and that to a very different club, which is not a part of any big website house like the yahoo and google. This site am talking about has every thing that a cyber surfer ever wants. This is the website address, http://www.friendscyberclub.com/ Features of this site is: 1) chatting 2) view profiles and photos 3) upload your photos and make a cool profile. 4) your message board 5) forum 6) See your name on the leader board. There are also many more features available in the site, free to join.

    The simplest way to accomplish this is to set the record source of the report to a query that selects the data from the table. Then in the query, place a parameter prompt in the criteria cell for your date field. For example: [Enter Date] ... include the brackets. Then when you open the report - you'll be prompted to enter a date - and the query will only return results that match the date you enter. You can also use a range that would be: Between [First Date] And [Second Date] ... you'll be prompted for 2 dates - and the query will return results with dates between the 2 dates you enter. Good luck!

    in your 'where' clause setup a condition for that field where dateField = '8/9/2006' if the field also contains time information you can setup a range in order to find all entries for a given day like this where dateField >= '8/9/2006' and dateField < '8/10'2006'
