I'm researching different ways of presenting to my client a constantly updated screen. I could have a form to begin the routine, have a timer on the form to refresh temp table data, but I need to decide how to present the data (ie: whether as a form or a report).
I would like to do an MDI report because it could sit minimized on their task bar. But my question is: Can my timer close an MDI report that's already open when it's time to generate another one? It doesn't seem like you can name MDI reports and close them like you can a form. So I'm assuming my timer would simply open up another instance of the report, right? If this is the case, I'll stick with a form. Karen
