    Change report recordsource without opening?

    I'm trying to send reports via email using VBA, but I can't figure out how to filter the recordsource so that only a single record goes to each person. Here's my code:

    Dim strSQL As String

    On Error Resume Next
    Dim DB As Database
    Dim RSValues As DAO.Recordset
    Set DB = CurrentDb()

    strSQL = "SELECT Email,pk_InitiativeID FROM tbl_Initiatives WHERE NOT EXISTS " & _
    "(SELECT tbl_EventLog.DateOfEvent " & _
    "FROM tbl_EventLog " & _


    "WHERE tbl_EventLog.fk_InitiativeID=tbl_Initiatives.pk_In itiativeID " & _
    "AND tbl_EventLog.fk_EventID=1 )"

    Debug.Print strSQL
    Set RSValues = DB.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
    RSValues.MoveLast
    RSValues.MoveFirst
    Do While Not RSValues.EOF
    Set rpt_Report.RecordSource = "SELECT * FROM tbl_Initiatives WHERE pk_InitiativeID=" & pk_InitiativeID

    DoCmd.SendObject acSendReport, "rpt_Report", acFormatPDF, Email, , , "Status Report for ", "This is a test", 0
    RSValues.MoveNext
    Loop


    It sends the report to the right people so the loop is working fine, but it sends the entire report rather than just the report for the associated person.

    thanks!

    You would have to open the report in design view. You can do something similar in the report's open event, or just set a filter, like this:
