    Hi and thanks for your input, much appreciated. I may have to look at this in a different way, if I can explain. The database is for vehicle maintenance etc, on the main form, which is a continuous form uses a navigation form to open up various other forms to add/edit data, one of which is for tests, roadtax, MOT etc, when the new date is entered, the form is closed and the main form is re-queried to reflect the changes made. Query6 looks for every test etc that is out of date and a piece of code loads that query count into a label on the main screen in a marquee fashion to show and highlight that fact that this amount of tests are overdue. it is this piece of code that I would like to run every time I re-query the main form, hopefully that makes more sense.

    Just to confirm, Query6 is *not* running until you call for it, right?

    That's correct, it's called when the form first opens, and every time the form is opened, just be nice to see the count update after a record is changed, but not sure how to do that.
