Trisha,
After you adjust the filter and get it applied do a this.Refresh(). That should tell the controls of the page to update themselves.
>I am opening my tables in the load event of my form. I have a pageframe on the form containing 3 pages. The 1st page allows the user to enter the key to the parent record. I am trying to set the filter to the parent & child tables in the activate event of the 2nd page, but my filter is not applied. I have added code to skip 1 & goto top thinking that my filter did not work because the record pointer did not move but this still doesn't work. Any suggestions? TIA! :)
