Imagine you create a form that shows the records of a
table or query. When navigating among the records, imagine the user comes to
a particular record he or she wants to print. If you simply write normal
code to open the related report, it would show all records from the
beginning. Fortunately, Microsoft Access provides an easy mechanism to
execute such a scenario.

If you add a button to a form in Design View, if the
Button Wizard starts, you can follow it to select the report that would be
opened when a button is clicked. Microsoft Access would write the code for
you:
Private Sub cmdPreviewRentalOrder_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdPreviewRentalOrder_Click
Dim stDocName As String
Dim strWHERECondition As String
stDocName = "RentalOrders"
strWHERECondition = "RentalOrderID = " & RentalOrderID
DoCmd.OpenReport stDocName, acPreview, , strWHERECondition
Exit_cmdPreviewRentalOrder_Click:
Exit Sub
Err_cmdPreviewRentalOrder_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdPreviewRentalOrder_Click
End Sub
