WEB Query Not recognizing >>> [forms]![formname]![combobox]

[giorgospsk]

I have a web-db that works fine before i upload it to Sharepoint Server site.



the structure is pretty simple:

1 Table, 2 Forms, 2 queries.

The first form submits the data
The second retrieves the data,filtered by a query, which has a criteria controlled by a combobox....

so i choose the date from the combobox, and i press a button that runs the query and after that pops up a report...

the table has stored information about what chapters of courses have been tought every day, in a school.. (example : 2/12/2012 mathsage2 englishage4 chemistry:test1


i use the following criteria to the query :

=[Forms]![form that has the combobox]![combobox name]

and its ok.

BUT when i upload the db to the server , the following error occurs :

Invalid reference 'forms.orderbydate.combo' in expression.


If i updated the db without the query's criteria (the problem), i have normal access to the by the browser...


i wish someone could help me , ive tried EVERYTHING

It shows the syntax as not having brackets around Forms. I've had enough mystical results from object references that I'd take off the brackets before trying anything else.

thanx a lot for the reply.
I admit i am a little bit confused with that. I have tried to change the syntax method, but it adds [ ] automatically. I am sure that the database after being published, cannot find or "see" where the [forms]![orderbydate]![combo106] is...
i think it is not bount at all...
is there a chance you know something about it??
thank you again.

[hertfordkc]

ask if there was anything in the database that was linked to your machine (as opposed to being imported into the database).

[giorgospsk]

well how do you mean "linked to" my machine?? like what could be linked to my machine??

sorry for my misunderstanding but english is not my mother language

That is distinctly different from a database being contained in one package. Since such linkage requires a 'path', moving the database might conceivably require updating the linkage.
Please note that I haven't done anything like this since 1999, so this is speculation.
