Hello everyone - I've been at this recordset issue all week and decided to come here and see if anyone can help point out what I'm doing wrong.

my goal: send an email with the data that was entered by user
what works so far: if I use ONE recordset it works perfectly
where it fails: the moment I add a second recordset (main form has two subforms) it crashes

Code: 
       Me.[frmExportShipmentDetails].Form.Recordset.MoveFirst
        Do While Not Me.[frmExportShipmentDetails].Form.Recordset.EOF
            strBody = strBody & "Line Items: " & Me.[frmExportShipmentDetails]![ordProductCode] & " | " & Me.[frmExportShipmentDetails]![ordProductDesc] & Chr(13)
            Me.[frmExportShipmentDetails].Form.Recordset.MoveNext
        Loop
                
        Me.[subfrmPelicanDIMS].Form.Recordset.MoveFirst [COLOR="DarkOrange"]' THIS IS WHERE I GET ERROR CODE 3021 - BUT I KNOW THERE IS A RECORD[/COLOR]
        Do While Not Me.[subfrmPelicanDIMS].Form.Recordset.EOF& Chr(13)
              strBody = strBody & "Details Items: " & Me.[subfrmPelicanDIMS]![Desc] & " | " & Me.[subfrmPelicanDIMS]![Case Nbr] & Chr(13)
              Me.[subfrmPelicanDIMS].Form.Recordset.MoveNext
        Loop


This is the code I used to set things up: (I figured creating a second instance of recordset would work. I suspect this is where my problem is)

Code: 
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rsDetail As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL As String

Dim db2 As DAO.Database
Dim rsDetail2 As DAO.Recordset
Dim strSQL2 As String

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblexportShipment WHERE expinvnbr = '" & Me!ProjectNumber & "'"
strSQL2 = "SELECT * FROM tblPelicanDIMS WHERE expid = " & Me!expID & ""

On Error GoTo ErrorHandler   'trap the errors

Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rsDetail = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)

Set db2 = CurrentDb()
Set rsDetail2 = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL2)

thanking you all in advance.

Try using form RecordsetClone instead.

Don't concatenate empty string to expID.

I don't see how your 'set things up' code is related to your 'problem' code. The setup code opens a couple of stand-alone recordsets, but your problem code is consuming recordsets exposed by what look like subforms. Is there code that you haven't shown us that assigns the recordsets created in the setup code to the recordset properties of the subforms???

thanks June7 and Mark - sure thing. See below entire code for command button that runs the sequence. This one works exactly as expected. The moment I add a second recordset I get the error. BTW the SQL for the second recordset I'm trying to run uses the primary key field. Not sure if that would cause a problem or not. (thanks June7 for pointing out the string code error)

Code: 
[CODE]Private Sub Command20_Exit(Cancel As Integer)

Dim objOutlook As Object
Dim objEmail As Object

Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim rsDetail As DAO.Recordset

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblexportShipment WHERE expinvnbr = '" & Me!ProjectNumber & "'"
'strSQL = "SELECT * FROM qryExportALLDetails WHERE expinvnbr = '" & Me!ProjectNumber & "'"


On Error GoTo ErrorHandler   'trap the errors

So this code you posted opens outlook and constructs an email message? Not sure how this is related to the earlier post.

Building string from two subforms records to include in email body. Gets error when referencing Recordset of second form. I would use RecordsetClone.

Do you really want to repeat all that header data for each record? Then if you continue to use strBody for the second recordset you are repeating eveything again. Really need 2 other variables to build the detail data and concatenate those to the strBody variable. Could even use HTML tags to build tables.

My bad. I posted the code that works well. Below is the same code when I try to add a second recordset using a different subform.

Code:

Dim strSQL2 As String

strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblexportShipment WHERE expinvnbr = '" & Me!ProjectNumber & "'"
strSQL2 = "SELECT * FROM tblPelicanDIMS WHERE expid =  & Me!expID & "

On Error GoTo ErrorHandler   'trap the errors

Set db = CurrentDb()
Set rsDetail = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)

Set db2 = CurrentDb()
Set rsDetail2 = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL2)

Did you read post 8?

I just did a test using Recordset of 2 subforms and don't get error. Each recordset has its own string variable.

So likely using RecordsetClone won't resolve issue. Something else is wrong.

Well that's doesn't sound promising :eek:
I didn't notice your post #8 until you mentioned it. Thanks
If the one SQL query included ALL fields required to send in email, it might work that way. I would only need one recordset to work with.
thanks for looking into this. I'll come back when I get this right and post the code.

Cheers!

The two recordsets you create at the start of the routine never end up getting used.
Code: 
Private Sub Command20_Exit(Cancel As Integer)
[COLOR="Green"]    '...[/COLOR]
    Set db = CurrentDb()
    Set rsDetail = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL)
    Set rsDetail2 = db.OpenRecordset(strSQL2)
[COLOR="green"]    '...[/COLOR]
    Set rsDetail = Nothing
    Set rsDetail2 = Nothing
End Sub
Is there something you intended to do with them? Are you confused between the recordsets in the subforms and the ones you opened here?

Hmmm
strSQL is being used because it produces a list of items (part number, qty, etc..) shipped. (this part works)
strSQL2 is suppose to return the weight and dimensions of the case shipped. I can't tell if it works because thats the second recordset where I'm having problems with.

You never use rsDetail and rsDetail2 recordset objects. Therefore strSQL (and strSQL2) accomplishes nothing. Data is coming from the main form record and subform Recordset.

You originally said the second subform Recordset was causing error. Is that still the case? Try commenting the first and see if the second runs solo.

The procedure says closing rsDetail causes error. Get rid of code pertaining to those recordset objects.

Interesting. You're both right. I just dimmed out all the code with recordset and I was still able to send email successfully. The code I used was done several years ago. I'm going to have to dig up my notes and see what the recordset was all about.
thank you both again

UNQUOTE

Yes still causing error. Was in the middle doing just that. Commented the code that worked to see if the second part works - errors code 2465.

Now checking my syntax, comma's, & etc ...

First hats off to both June7 and Mark for pointing out some useless code and other errors.

This code was riddled with syntax errors. First I was referencing the wrong subform name then I had a typo when referring to one of the fields.

All good now and thank you again. The more I cleaned up the code the closer I got to my goal.

Cheers!
