Filtering Macro question?

[mgtyper]

If I have column headings named
Wire
Walker Conn #
Base Sensor

Only the first DoCmd works ("wire =wires")

I get an error on the other two.
I have tried different syntax and have not been able to get it to work.

Public Sub SampleSearch()
 
DoCmd.ShowAllRecords
 
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "wire = wires"
 
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "Walker Conn #  = ConnNum"
 
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "Base Sensor = BaseSensor"
 
 
End Sub

DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "Walker Conn # = ConnNum"

DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "Base Sensor = BaseSensor"

I could be wrong but i guess it might be because of the space between the words...
Try changing the column headings to Walker_Conn_# and Base_Sensor...
Hope it helps...

I tried this and still only the first one works([wires] = wire)?

Public Sub SampleSearch()
 
DoCmd.ShowAllRecords
 
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "[wires] = wire"
 
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "[WalkerConnNum] =  Connnum"
 
DoCmd.ApplyFilter , "[BaseSensor] = BaseSensor"
 
PrgramEnd:
End Sub

I renamed my columns to match
wires
WalkerConnNum
BaseSensor
