I am working on a macro to copy field information for the current record selected (in a continuous form) over to an excel spreadsheet to make it easier on my team to prefill an excel form.
This was an added request after I had since split the databased etc. So i wanting to not also have to modify the Query or the form. I have done data moves to excel multiple times but my usual strategy is to use Me.fieldname since i need to pull info related to the record that is not in the QUERY record set but still in my main table associated with the key field. i thought using DAO.Database would have worked but i get an compile error (added message in code below)
was i wrong to employ this method in a continuous form? or is it OK to do this but my syntax is wrong
