Table of contents question

[paddymx]

I have followed the instructions for making a table of contents as per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/131588 but it appears that a query is still running after I have run the code. If I try to view the table of contents table in design mode I get the error message that I can only open it as read only because a query or form is open. I have to close the DB and re open it to make any changes to the TOC tbl. Is there a way to "kill" whatever is running. It just doesn't seam right to have something running in the background that I can't see or find. Any ideas?...TNX

Try adding
toctable.close

directly after
toctable.update

However, if you try to print the report more than once after opening the report, it may not work.

Thanks but I tried putting that on the close event of the TOC report but didn't help. Actually I added a function to my TOCMod :

Function CloseTOC()
TocTable.Close
End Function

and called that =CloseTOC() . Wouldn't that do the same thing except after all the "Updates" ? Or should I do it after each update in the source report or on its close event?

EDIT: I added my function to the close event of the source report and that solved the problem. TOC still printed and the Table of Contents table let me open it in design mode. No problem re running the source report either.


Thanks!
