passing info from an access form to a web page
I noticed that I can by pass a lot of info when selecting a web page by supplying the info up front. For instance I can go to a specific warehouse at
http://xxx.com/cgi-bin/REP/b_whsinv1.cgi then its asks for a warehouse

by scanning the html code its looking for a value for "whs"
by supplying the info needed for "whs" on the address line I can go directly to a warehouse

http://xxx.com/cgi-bin/REP/b_whsinv1.cgi?whs=yyy

so now here is the question.

If I have a an access form. I can create a command button(hyperlink address property) to go to that webpage, but when I try to use the warehouse name that is object(text box) I get nowhere. Ive used the textbox name, the table field name, the full path of the object (Forms!fornname.controlName).

Is this possible? Hope this makes sense.

Thanks

Joe

Sometimes you just need to bounce the problem off of someone. The answer was pretty simple really, I just wasn't thinking simple.

I used the hyperlink property on the cmdbutton

Private Sub cmdGoToFEInventory_Click()
'Go to Fe Inventory using warehouse in Combo159
Me.cmdGoToFEInventory.HyperlinkAddress = "http://xxx.com/cgi-bin/REP/b_whsinv1.cgi?whs=" & Me.Combo159
End Sub

Sorry, If Itook up anyones time.
