Welcome to VBForums :wave:

You've told us where the error occurs, but not what the error is.... without that info it is very hard to work out what the problem might be.

well the error message i got was :


"Run-time error ';2137217904(80040e10)':
No value given for one or more required parameters




Thats about it!..hope this can help!...anyway is they any easy tutorial to create crystal report on vb6?

AND c.Status='1'"
Is status numeric? Get rid of the single qoute in front of the 1
If text add a single qoute after the 1

And try again

That cryptic error message usually means a spelling mistake or specifying a field that doesn't exist in a table.

In the select list you have a.lastname while in the where clause you have b.lastname. Is that correct?

And get rid of the duplicate one.

hope this can make it more clearer!

No point in posting more code if you don't answer the previous questions.

First thing first, validate your connection and querys.

well i did what you all ask me to do but i still getting the same problem, thats why i post the whole code!

You didn't mention that before, so we didn't know.

As to doing all that you have been asked, unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case... in post 6 you were told that you should remove the duplicate AND c.Status='1', and it is still there.

In post 5 you were asked to check if the field lastname is in table b , and you seem to have changed b.lastname to b.firstname - whereas it should presumably have been changed to a.lastname
