on my form with the following alternatives:
1. show only the fields with supplierid = 1
2. show only the fields with supplierid = 2
3. show all

whixh is the best method to do it?

If you use a combobox instead of a button, it will still work if you get
another supplierid.
The combo row source can be a query based on the supplierid table.
Use a union query to get the option for all.


Select tblSupplier.SupplierID, tblSupplier.SupplierName
From tblSupplier
Union Select Null As SupplierID, "<All" As SupplierName
Order By SupplierName

If you use the combo wizard to make the combo, choose the option to find a
record.
