Sunny: Have you tried this with a real staff #? For example:

REPORT FORM HOME()+"Report\Employee_All_Report.FRX" for Employee.staff_no='12345' PREVIEW

I think you're having problems with the way the condition is written. Usually you need to set up the condition without referring to another form, because when it is read, you are inside the report.

cCond = "Employee.staff_no = '" + thisform.cur_staff_no + "'"

REPORT FORM HOME()+"Report\Employee_All_Report.FRX" for &cCond

Note that the value for thisform.Cur_staff_no is surrounded by quote marks which are added to the phrase. You have to be careful about single and double quotes!!! If you looked at cCond it would look like

Employee.staff_no = '12345'
